this is text for making audio book on, The Saucers Speak. A documentary report of Interstellar Communication by Radiotelegraphy by George Hunt Williamson. (author of Secret Places of the Lion, Other Tongues—Other Flesh, Road in the Sky). Neville Spearman, — London 1963. Introduction to the Revised Edition. Behold a fairer time is with you than any men have dreamed of; behold there is gladness again in the heavens when a host not of earth is seen of all shepherds. High in open heavens, a new Host rusheth unto you; it singeth of beauties whose eagerness greeteth you; There is a new trumpet and an excellent tongue to voice it; there is a new paean and a stronger throat to roll it, there is a high summoning and yet a new joy that Man perceiveth to surfeit the threats to darkened infinities. These things a new Host voiceth, and their silver hath a trade-stamp that rebuketh man’s incredulence. —From The Golden Scripts. Introduction. In the first edition of this book, published in America in 1954, the radio operator who received signals from space remained anonymous. He was referred to as Mr. “R,” a radioman. Since his first experiments, many other operators have been inspired to attempt radio contact with the intelligence behind the UFO. In 1955, a Canadian official wrote to me and informed me that Canadian radio operators had successfully communicated with the same space group that had originally contacted Mr. R in Arizona. The radio messages are printed in SMALL CAPITAL letters for easy identification. In some cases, the messages were in a code not understood by the radio operator or witnesses present. Therefore, they are reproduced exactly as received. Some of these unknown messages seem to be part of a two-way communication between space ships, others are nothing more than reports between very earthly ships at sea. In this edition, Mr. R is revealed as Mr. Lyman H. Streeter, W70JQ, a radio operator for the Santa Fe Railroad. Photographs of his home and radio ham shack in Winslow, are reproduced here for the first time. This edition is enlarged with the addition of the chapter, Mr. R’s Secret, and the chapter, Cosmic Rays and a Baby Sun. At the end of this edition, you will find the Merint Programme radiotelegraph procedure sheet (authorized by the Secretary of the Navy, USA). This is the first time it has been copied or published anywhere, since the United States wants apparently to keep knowledge of Merint from private citizens. The programme is used by USA and Canadian Merchant Vessels (coastwise) “for early warning in defense of the North American continent.” The radiotelegraph sheet is to be posted in the radio room and on the bridge of every ship. It bears the designation: OPNAV 94-P-3B (there is a similar sheet, OPNAV 94-P-3A, that is used for radiotelephone procedure). The reader will notice the statement: “Report immediately all airborne and waterborne objects which appear to be hostile, suspicious or are unidentified.” The perfect drawing of an UFO is interesting. The American government is aware that UFOs exist (proven by recent statements in the House of Representatives), how much they know about them is another matter. Recently, a well-known “Saucer” author wrote a book titled Flying Saucers Farewell. I rather doubt the idea that UFOs have gone home again. They have been surveying us for thousands of years and they will not leave until their programme is culminated. Farewell, indeed? They are still being seen daily all over the world. The little group of researchers in Arizona in 1952 opened the way for radio contact with space. When will the governments of the world continue that pioneering effort? Only time will tell, and there isn’t too much of that left. next headline, 1, Prologue. This documentary report on communication with space craft in the Earth’s atmosphere covers the period from 2 August 1952 until February 1953. Communication was also established with several planets in our own Solar System and with space craft in our atmosphere from other Solar Systems. For the most part, all messages were received in International Morse Code through radiotelegraphy. There was one instance, where radiotelephony was employed by the space craft intelligences. The egotistical idea that our puny Earth is the hub of the universe should have died out with Ptolemaic or Earth-centre theory. If we believe in Infinity then there must be billions upon billions of earths and solar systems. It can be concluded by reason alone that other planets, many exceeding this Earth in magnitude, are not vacant masses, created only to be borne along and revolve around the Sun, and shine just for the pleasure of men on Earth. The Creator has created the Universe for no other end than that the human race may exist. Wherever there is an earth, there are or will be men. Science knows that there are at least 1,000,000 other planetary systems in our own Milky Way Galaxy. A lot of room for a lot of people. Spectroscopic analysis, and our own misconceptions and conceit are the only factors against life on other worlds. We take intense delight in thinking of ourselves as Lords of Creation and in some cases, even deny the Creator Himself. Our egotism chokes and blinds us to reality and we deny what we know in our heart to be true. The spectroscope is inaccurate and this fact has been known and proven many times. The great observatories of our world, dedicated to scientific truth know that the other planets are inhabited by men and they know what the flying saucers are, too! We are not the only ones who have been fortunate enough to make contact with the saucer intelligences. There are many other devoted and sincere workers throughout the world who are receiving messages by radiotelegraphy and other methods. The valuable information in their possession is almost identical with ours in every case. These messages constitute a warning to men on the planet of the third orbit or Earth. There isn’t any threat of invasion; but as a father warns a child of danger, these people who are wiser than we, are telling us we have already done untold damage to our world through the use of Atomic Energy. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say, the misuse of that energy. The space craft intelligences know exactly what our insane experimentation has done in the past and they know the prevailing conditions on earth at this time. Look at the increase in tidal waves, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, plane crashes, sea disasters, the strange world-wide weather, and the recent floods in Great Britain, Belgium and the Netherlands. We have but to look about us and we immediately know what we have done. It is realized that many will not believe this report and will therefore reject it. But, there will be many more who will believe and who will accept its message and attempt to warn the world. We are not trying to prove anything to anyone. We have received this information from a great and noble people, and it is our duty to give it to our fellowman in truth. Read the following account with an open mind. Think about it seriously, for it is a message in a time of world unrest. This work is dedicated to the Brotherhood of Man in answer to the desperate need of a stricken world. In profound humility we thank those who have come a great distance to aid us at this time. Those who desire and seek truth have called this work forth, and for them it was recorded. GEORGE HUNT WILLIAMSON. Prescott, Arizona, 15 February 1953. Ancient records show beyond the shadow of a doubt that the saucers have been here for centuries. When radio was developed on the Earth, things began to happen. The first report was made by the father of wireless himself, Marconi. In September 1921, J. C. H. MacBeth, London manager of the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company arrived in New York and told astonished reporters that Marconi believed he had intercepted messages from Mars or some point in outer space. The signals, MacBeth said, had been received while Marconi was on his yacht in the Mediterranean conducting atmospheric experiments with wireless. Magnetic wave lengths high in the meter band had been picked up, although the maximum length of Earth produced waves at that time was 14,000 meters. The theory that the waves were produced by electrical disturbances was disproved by the regularity of the impulses. Although the impulses apparently consisted of a code, the only signal similar to Earth codes was one resembling the letter V in the Marconi code. Marconi’s experiment is interesting because he, too, received the strange V. In almost all of the radio contacts made by Mr. R, this letter was frequently given. In the following years, as radio was developed, a number of interesting discoveries were made. L. W. Chubb, director of research for the Westinghouse Electric Company, in announcing the perfection of beam radio transmission, stated that if communications with Mars was ever established, it would have to be with ultra short waves directed like a beam of light in order to penetrate the atmospheric layers above the Earth’s surface. Ultra-short waves are the nearest approach of radio waves to regular light waves. The Heaviside-Kennelly Layer is about seventy miles above the surface. At double that height is the Appleton Layer. These are layers of ionized gas that reflect radio waves. The Heaviside-Kennelly Layer reflects medium waves and the Appleton Layer the short waves. Beam transmission experiments, however, were made by the Danish expert, Hals, and two Scandinavian scientists, Stormer and Peterson, and they found that certain short waves penetrate both layers and travel far out into space. Their signal echoes arrived from three to thirty seconds after transmission. Since the velocity of radio waves is the same as light, 186,000 miles per second (now known to be faster), it was obvious that the “layers” or bodies that reflected these signals were located at from 280,000 to 2,800,000 miles from the Earth. Apparently even these “layers” far out into space could be penetrated by a beamed wave approaching a regular light wave which passes through all ionized barriers. Plans for a regular light beam signal were made by Harry Price, director of the National Laboratory of Psychical Research in London in 1930, but the project was abandoned due to insufficient funds. The site selected was the summit of Jungfraujoch in the Bernese Oberland, 11,000 feet above sea level. Ten tons of magnesium was to be ignited in oxygen in the focus of reflectors, and the beam directed on the snowfields of the Martian pole. This colossal flare, it was believed, would certainly bring a response if there were intelligent beings on the mystery planet. On the night of 22 August 1924, the planet Mars approached to within thirty-four and a half million miles of the Earth. Radio silence prevailed from the broadcasting stations and scientists listened for a possible message from across space. Station WOR at Newark, New Jersey, was the first listening post to report. Other stations followed. And in Washington, DC, a photographic film record of the impulses was being made which has never been understood. Plans for the experiment had been carefully laid. Dr. David Todd, Professor Emeritus of Astronomy at Amherst College, was the organizer of the international “listening in” test. At Dr. Todd’s suggestion the United States Government, through channels of diplomacy, requested that all countries with high power transmitters silence their stations for five minutes every hour from 11:50 p.m., 21 August to 11:50 p.m., 23 August. C. Francis Jenkins, of Washington, D C, had only recently invented a radio photo message continuous recording machine, and he was asked by Dr. Todd to take a record of any signals received during the experiment. The recording device was attached to a receiving set adjusted to a wave length of 6,000 meters. Incoming signals caused flashes of light which were printed on the film by an instrument passing over its surface from side to side. The film was in the form of a roll tape, thirty feet long and six inches wide, and it was slowly unwound under the instrument and light bulb which responded to the transmitted sounds. The Jenkins device was in operation for a period of about thirty hours during all moments of silence while Mars was closest to the Earth. Then the film was developed, and on 27 August, the astonished experimenters called in newspaper reporters. The film disclosed in black on white a fairly regular arrangement of dots and dashes along one side, but on the other side, at almost evenly spaced intervals, were curiously jumbled groups each taking the form of a crudely drawn human face. The inventor did not think that Mars was the cause of the phenomenon, but he said, “The film shows a repetition at intervals of about a half-hour of what appears to be a man’s face, and it’s a freak which we can’t explain.” Although admitting that he was at a loss to explain its significance, Dr. Todd took a more serious view. He said, “We now have a permanent record which can be studied, and who knows until we have studied it, just what these signals may have been?” Army code experts worked on the film for some weeks without reaching any decisions, and a copy of the film was given to the radio division of the Bureau of Standards. The film is there today, and it is claimed it has never been understood. It seems the significance of the human face is obvious, taking for granted it did come from somewhere in outer space. A crudely drawn human face would be a “calling card” of the human race anywhere! The film had only deepened the mystery of the dots and dashes reported heard by widely separated operators of powerful stations. News dispatches of 23 August announced that R. L Potelle, chief engineer of Station WOR, Newark, New Jersey, between 7:30 and 10:00 p.m. on the preceding evening, received a series of dots and dashes that belonged neither to the Morse nor Continental codes. The signals were steadily repeated. After hours of study, the engineer decided that the word being transmitted was EUNZA. The word has no meaning in the languages of earth. The word EUNZA reminds us again of our radio experiments. You will note later that we received the letters E U. It is possible that there is some connection? Is our E U really just a part of EUNZA? An attempt to contact Mars by radio was made in October 1928, by Mansfield Robinson, a London lawyer, through the Rugby station in England. The message was sent on an 18,700 meter wave length, and it was hoped that some sort of response might be heard. A few minutes after Robinson’s message went out through space, Professor A. M. Low, the famous English scientist who was listening in, received a series of signals on his radio. He said: “It was a mysterious message, but it is hardly likely that it could have come from Mars. However, I must confess that I do not know who sent it. It was a series of dots and dashes.” Here was a group attempting radio contact with Mars, yet when they received a reply they refused to accept the obvious! That is as stupid as deliberately going to the telephone, dialing a certain number, and when the party answers, saying to him: “I can’t understand you, but you couldn’t be my party anyway.” Strange things were happening amongst the amateur radio men, too. In July of 1950, Byron Goodman (W 1 DX), Assistant Technical Editor of QST (official organ of the American Radio Relay League, Inc. and the International Amateur Radio Union), wrote an article entitled, “The Loneliest Ham in the World.” This article appeared in QST. Mr. Goodman’s strange account and experience follows: It was a good convention, although the rains may have held down the attendance a little. At the DX meeting I mentioned how at League Headquarters we often enjoy the confidences of foreign hams who are forced to operate under cover, and how these operators in the less “enlightened” countries really have a tough time of it. It just happens to be one of the interesting sidelights to working at the League, and I’ve told about it lots of times, without giving away any calls, of course. The wind-up banquet was over early, and I figured it was a good chance to catch up on my sleep. But just as I got to my room the phone rang, and a voice at the other end asked if he could come up and talk a little DX. Well, no matter how tired you are you don’t pass up something like that, so I told him, “Sure. Come on up.” I’d put my guest in his 50’s, but of course you never know. He told me his call, which didn’t ring any bells, and his name. He took his with soda, and then announced, “Boy, I’ve worked more DX than anyone else in the world.” Oh, brother! I thought. A crackpot. I know W1FH and a few of the others, and this guy wasn’t one of them. “I don’t follow you, Mike,” I said. “W1FH has the most confirmed, and there are a few others right on his tail. How many have you got?” “If you mean countries,” he said. “I don’t have any. I’m talking about real DX. I have to tell someone or I’ll bust. I figure I can talk to you because you know how to keep a confidence.” “Oh, you can trust me,” I said, knowing I had about forty pounds and a few years on him. And I was closer to the door. “What do you call real DX?” He sipped his drink and looked straight at me. He didn’t look like a nut. His eyes were clear without the glitter, and he wasn’t a nervous type. “Planets,” he said quietly. “I’ve worked four of them.” My first reaction was to gag it and ask if he had the QSLs, but then I thought better of it. “What makes you think I’ll believe that, or even think it’s funny?” I asked. “Look, it’s early,” he replied. “Come on out to the shack and I’ll show you. The Eastern train goes out at 9 a.m., and I’ll bring you back before midnight. You’ll get your beauty sleep.” I’m a sucker for any new angle, so I went. He briefed me while I watched his Buick’s headlights take us through town and out the highway. “I got interested in 5 meters when hams were debasing tubes to get on 20,” he said. “That’s a long time ago, and I hadn’t had my ticket very long. There wasn’t a soul around here on 5, but I didn’t know enough to realize there weren’t a lot of fellows on across the country. After all, QST reported activity there.” “That was before my time,” I explained. “Don’t blame me.” “I called CQ on 5 every night every ten minutes for I don’t know how long,” he continued. “Then one night, as I turned around after my second or third CQ, I heard someone calling me. I was so shaky going back I almost pulled the key off the table. The signal signed MA1A but I never gave it a thought.”” It was someone I could work, and that was good enough for me. I gave him a signal report and signed over. He didn’t come back! I was frantic! Here he was, the first station I’d ever raised, and I lost him! Then, fully seven or eight minutes later, I ran across his signal acknowledging my report and telling me I was very weak. He wasn’t weak at all, and before we were through he had told me how to build a decent antenna, although I had a little trouble at times understanding his English. It was a screwy kind of skywire, like nothing in the books then or now. We made a schedule for the next night, and during the day I built the antenna. When schedule time came I called with a lot of confidence, but no answer. Then, after a lapse of about seven or eight minutes I heard him! This time we chewed the fat for five hours, always with the delay in his comeback. What he told me that night left me in a daze. He said he was on Mars! They had heard me calling QC every night, and practicing the code in between, and they had managed to dope out the language from what I had sent all those months. It’s true I had been amusing myself by practicing the code on the air-sending a page at a time from QST or Scientific American—but I didn’t see how they could figure out the whole language from that. It turned out that they hadn’t really, but after a few weeks of schedules and a lot of questions MA1A knew the language as well as I did. From the first he told me that if I mentioned this to anyone else our schedule would stop, so I didn’t tell a soul. I kept looking for an angle. All I could figure was a big leg-pulling deal, so I rode along. “When was all this,” I asked. “Oh, it started back in the 20’s,” Mike replied. “Since then we’ve moved higher in frequency, and he’s told me how to build in secrecy systems so no one will ever get on to us. I can’t tell you the details, but we never stay on the same frequency long enough for anyone to spot us. We swish through the 2-metre band hundreds of times an hour, but nothing would ever tag us except a TV receiver in that range.” “And you’ve been keeping this schedule ever since?” I asked. “That and a few more. When we first started, MA1A asked a lot of questions, and I noticed that when I told him about our aeroplanes and submarines and guns he wasn’t much interested. But since the war I have to go through all the magazines and papers for any dope on jet planes and rockets and atomic energy, because he asks a lot of questions about what we’re doing with them. Ever since he told me how to build a real antenna and a good station, we’ve had a solid circuit. He and his friends are smart ones, all right. The things they tell me always work, and it’s all stuff that hasn’t been in QST or even the I. R. E. Proceedings. As he helped me improve my rig, he started hooking me up with some of the other planets.” This is really getting thick, I thought. “Apparently these guys or things on Mars taught the earth language, at least my version of it, to the other planets, and told how to get in touch with me. I figured the whole thing might be a hoax, so I read up on astronomy and darned if everything didn’t check. Our dates were made only for times the other planets were visible on this side of the world, and the delay time always checked out on the button. The toughest place to get to was Jupiter, and I finally had to raise my peak power to 200 kilowatts before I could get through, although I’d been hearing them for weeks.” What do you mean, “peak power,” I asked. “Are you using pulse?” “Sure,” Mike replied. “It’s the only way I can get through and not have tubes that would look suspicious, just in case the law ever comes around. I put that in back in 1932, when I first worked Venus. Anyway, it’s part of our secrecy system.” “How about phone? Didn’t you try it so you can hear what their voices sound like?” “I suggested it,” said Mike. “But they said ‘No.’ Code was good enough for all they needed, they claimed. I figured they didn’t want to tip me off, in case they don’t have voices and would have to create artificial ones.” It sounded reasonable enough, but I wasn’t buying any until I saw it. Just then Mike turned off the highway onto a dirt road, and we finally ended up in a small house. In the moonlight I could see a lot of masts. “My antenna is made of wires strung from those poles,” Mike explained. “I change the directivity by phasing from the shack, and I explain to the few hams who have wandered by that it’s an experimental 40-metre beam. I’m never on 40, they don’t hear me, and they lose interest.” Inside the shack the stuff looked real good. I didn’t see anything that looked like unusual techniques, though, and I wondered out loud about the secret stuff. Mike smiled and explained that the place had to look something like a ham station—the secret gear was hidden away and I was wasting my time snooping. “When’s your next date?” I asked. “Tomorrow night,” Mike replied. “But we can interrogate the band if you want, just in case someone’s on.” He warmed up the rig a few minutes and then threw a switch. The lights dimmed a bit and I heard a few transformers groan. A pip appeared on the panoramic and Mike centered it. He sat down at the table and worked the guy on the bug. The call was MM1F but I wasn’t impressed, because a lot of jokers with queer calls have sucked me in during the past decade or two, and I believe them when I get a QSL. Mike and MM1F exchanged reports and then chewed the fat about an ionosphere storm that was due, working fast break-in. MM1F could have been a ZL for all the difference it would have made in the procedure. I had to admire his fist, though it sounded just like tape. Then it dawned on me that the whole thing was a rib! There was no delay in the comeback! Some of the local boys must have planned the whole thing to make a monkey out of the New Englander. But the op at the other end had forgotten to allow some lag time! Pretty good, I thought, but they slipped up after all the elaborate built-up. I’ll just play along. Mike signed off, there were no more pips on the screen, and he shut down and made a pot of coffee. We chewed about receiver sensitivity, pulse techniques, beam antennas, and the usual. I had to hand it to him—he knew all the answers. Occasionally I would get around to his rig, but he would brush me off on the tough questions with the excuse that they involved the secret stuff. On the way back to the hotel it was much the same deal, but he did give me a few ideas I’m going to try. That one about compound feedback has possibilities. Mike made me promise I wouldn’t tell a soul about his work, declined a nightcap, and then I gave him the business. “By the way, Mike,” I asked, “why wasn’t there any delay on that planet MM1F you worked!” “Oh, that was no planet,” Mike replied. “That was a mobile station, a space ship practically in our atmosphere. There are quite a few around these days, scouting the earth. Look me up when you’re out this way again.” He drove off before I had a chance to tell him I had the whole thing figured. But have I? I just read about two airline pilots who have seen the darned things! There are several things about Mike’s experience that tic-in with our own experiments. First of all, he said that the transmission from Mars, etc., was never “weak.” The signals we received were never “weak” either. He said that the language they used was strange. Could it be they spelled phonetically as they did with us? He also said that Jupiter was the most difficult planet to contact. You will note later our own radio records, and know that we had the same experience. They wouldn’t use radiotelephony with Mike, and they only used it once with us. Yes, the saucers have been here for centuries, and the moment we developed our crude radio communication, they utilized that also. next headline, is part 3. Williamson: His Story. It was a rainy afternoon in mid-summer on the shores of Spirit Bear Lake. This was the northern land of Minnesota, USA. It had always been the same, I mused, as I stretched out on my cabin cot to read. The Redman, the Norseman, the Whiteman; they had all been captivated by the `Land of the Sky-Blue Water.' Evidence is on every hand to prove that they all were acquainted with this country of mounds, mooring-stones and logging camps. It was in 1951 and I was doing anthropological field-work amongst the Chippewa Indians. I had already accumulated many legends of these wonderful Woodland people. Woven into their age-old stories of 'Hairy-Faced Men,' 'Gee-By's' (Ghosts), and Nanabozho, were countless tales of the 'Gin-Gwin' or that which shakes the Earth. These 'Earth-Rumblers' might also be known as `Flying Wheels' or `Flying Boats.' The venerable old Chippewa men still tell of the sacred `Little People' in a whisper. These highly intelligent little men were said to have appeared in ancient times to the people of the Chippewa nation. While they were with the Indians they taught them better ways of living. If you ask the Indian why these wise beings are no longer seen, they will tell you, `They don't come around much any more since the white man came.' After many months of hearing and recording these legends, I still never associated them in any way with the saucer phenomena that was puzzling the entire world. So, on this rainy afternoon, I began to read the pocketbook edition of Donald Keyhoe's, The Flying Saucers Are Real. Once started, I couldn't put it down until I had finished it. It continued to rain and I continued to read. He spoke of that day in Tucson, Arizona when thousands of people looked up to see 'something' in the sky. I had been in Tucson when all of this happened and I had seen that something myself. Now facts began to snap into place in my mind. I had always believed that this Earth must certainly not be the only inhabited world in the entire universe. Why would the Creator place man, his crowning achievement on one, rather small, insignificant planet? After all, there must be many planets and solar systems in outer space. Why would any earth be created to spin around eternally void of life; to fulfill its mission as a noxious ball of poisonous gas full of methane and ammonia? I felt that other worlds were created for one purpose only--to be the abode of Man! Yes, I could accept Keyhoe's conclusion that the flying saucers were interplanetary in origin. They could be from planets in our own solar system, or they could even be from other solar systems. And then I seemed to hear uproarious laughter because I felt that the men of other worlds must think it humorous indeed that men of Earth on their little speck believe that the entire universe was created just for them. These men must also feel somewhat sad at the same time because such ignorance abounds. I now collected my legends and so-called myths in a more serious manner. Where before I had not deliberately looked for saucer stories, I now intentionally dug them out. At the Chippewa rice camps, the Squaw Dances, the country grocery store and in the fishing boats, we talked saucers--the Redman and I. Soon I discovered that the saucers existed in the tales of almost all the American Indian tribes and even in the legends of so-called primitive people all over the world! There were the `Flying Boats' of ancient India and the Orient. The `Flying Boats' and the `Havmusuvs' of the Paiutes and Navajos in the American Southwest. The `Little Wise People' of the Sioux, Mandan, Cherokee and many other tribes. The strange, almost forgotten tales of Poseid (Atlantis), Lemuria, Mu, and Pan the Lost Continents where men had the knowledge of `Flying Ships.' And in the Holy Bible itself I found an obvious reference to saucers in the Old Testament, Book of the Prophet Ezekiel, Chapter 1. I returned to Arizona in the spring of 1952 and decided to continue my research, hoping to find some of the answers, at least, to the age-old mystery of the saucers and wheels. What were they? Where did they come from? What--if anything--was inside? What were they here for? I knew that somewhere there were answers to these and other questions. I wanted to find out. I joined my wife in Prescott, Arizona. She had been conducting her own research in anthropology near Tucson, Arizona, and had her own across many strange tales also. We then began to read everything that had ever been published on the saucer phenomena. Keyhoe, Heard, Scully, Arnold, Palmer, and others. During the summer months the saucers were headlined again and again. This time they were seen over the Washington Capitol mad were even picked-up on radarscopes. One evening in late summer, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred C. Bailey of Winslow, Arizona, came to visit with my wife and I in Prescott. I had corresponded with Al and Betty and knew them to be people interested in ancient history, philosophy, and anthropology. Al was employed by the Santa Fe Railways Company, but antiquities had always fascinated him and he made quite a hobby of it. We discussed my research work in the Northern United States and what I had discovered while there. Inevitably, the conversation got around to saucers. Neither the Baileys nor my wife and I were absolutely certain as to what they might be. We did know, however, that the so-called official statements regarding them were very absurd and only confused the entire matter. A noted South American scientist claimed they were corpuscles passing over the retina of the eye. Another said they were seeking cotton puff balls floating in the New Mexico skies from Texas. Others said they were flying hub-caps, tow-targets, weather instruments, temperature inversion, etc. We both had always believed that other worlds must be inhabited. Even most astronomers agree on that point. So, we decided that if the saucers were piloted by intelligent beings, they must be wiser than we. They must be, for they have developed space craft and we have not. Therefore, they would be able to understand our language by now and our code systems as well. This seems difficult for most people to understand. They ask, 'But how can the "saucerians" speak English?' Let me say it is not impossible by any means. We speak a language, don't we? And we learned it as children by hearing it spoken. As we get older it is harder for us to learn a language but we can learn it, nevertheless. Are we to limit them to our own intelligence? We have already proven that they are much wiser than we. But let us say for a moment that they are only as intelligent as we are (perish the thought). They then could learn our language in about six months by merely listening to it. Anthropology can explain this fact easily. If one goes into a foreign land and wishes to learn the language of that land, he finds someone who is bilingual to teach him. However, if no one there understands him and he doesn't understand them, he has no alternative but to listen to them day in and day out. After about six months (this varies with different individuals, of course) he will begin to know what they are talking about. Sometime later he will learn to speak the language himself. So, you see, it is not too difficult to understand how they can speak our languages or know our code systems. If there were intelligent beings in those saucers they must be observing our world--listening to everything we say by monitoring our radio broadcasts. We wondered what their purpose in coming to Earth was. We didn't think it conceivable that with countless planets in space they would desire our beloved Earth that we have contaminated for so many centuries. Besides, if they have been coming here for so long, why didn't they invade and conquer us when we were quite harmless with our bow and arrow playthings? Certainly they wouldn't wait until we had developed atomic weapons of war! Therefore, we knew that they had not traversed millions of miles of space for conquest. We spent the rest of our evening together in Prescott enjoying a line supper in town and entertaining ourselves with certain games and parlour tricks. One amusing pastime known to many families as a diverting trick is automatic writing. We thought it would be fun to try it. We had heard that the idea was for one or two people to hold a pencil over a sheet of paper and then see if it would write some sort of a message. Although there are some who seriously consider the writing obtained in this manner to be genuine spirit communication, we never had such thoughts in our minds. We were just doing what many people will do in their own parlour for an evening's entertainment. In truth, since our dinner, we had just about forgotten the elusive saucers, and now were having a good time. What we did not know was the people of other worlds were watching and waiting f or a sign of receptivity on the part of their brothers on Earth, standing by and ready with their superior equipment to contact any and all who sought the answer to their presence in the skies of Earth. Little did we know what we had started with our simple little amusement. It was to change our entire life! If what we were receiving through automatic writing was true, then there would be answers to many questions. Had we, through our intense desire to know more about the saucers, actually contacted the intelligence behind them? It didn't seem at all possible, but how could we be sure? For centuries man on Earth has pondered the debatable question: Is there life on other worlds? If so, and this life is human, are there homes and cities where men live, love and work? We looked up into black space, pin-pointed with millions of these worlds, and wondered. next headline, part 4, Alfred C. Bailey: His Story. During my school years, and for reasons not known or understood, I was at variance with my instructors and textbooks. I had a strong tendency to argue and disbelieve both the teachers and their many theories that they taught as `fact.' As I look back now, throughout my entire life, I can see where man-made ideas and opinions have been relegated to the back of my mind. However, it was always easy for me to accept ideas of a universal nature, and to reject or disregard effect ideas that were being taught. Perhaps during my grade school years this unknown factor was the thing that made my life so hard. After entering high school I found it much easier to get along even if I did not completely agree with my instructors. In 1933 I met Dr. F. E. Dewart, a chiropractor, of Peru, Indiana. Until this time my concept of chiropractic was as hazy and biased as most young people's. Dr. Dewart explained to me in concise and simple language the theory of his profession. It was so natural and reasonable that it immediately intrigued me. From his simple explanation of how and why the human body worked I decided to study this science. In the fall of 1933 I entered the Palmer School of Chiropractic. I did not complete the prescribed course of study, but did learn enough of it to know that certain Universal Laws as taught there apply to almost every phase of scientific research and to life itself. The philosophy is based upon the understanding and the acceptance of the existence of a Universal Intelligence. It starts with that great universal principle of cause. As long as that part of their philosophy, upon which their science is based, is kept in mind, they or anyone else following a line of scientific research cannot be far wrong. Any scientific study based on that great principle of the universe studying effects proceeding from cause instead of trying to arrive at causes by studying effects cannot but be well based in fact instead of theory. Even though I did not finish my chiropractic study and failed to enter practice, I am glad that I attended their school. I learned to understand the Laws of the Universe a little more. Six or seven years ago I broke with a dogmatic religion. From that time until now I have in no way felt lost but learned that no religion offered all the necessary answers to the universe. At least, none of them answered my inner-most feelings. I liked the American Southwest. It had an exceptional climate and good employment was to be had in my field of railroading. Winslow, Arizona, is a typical railroad town. I have worked for the Santa Fe Railway Company for many years, and now serve them as a conductor. Although I had little formal education in science, I read many books on various subjects. Several of these books spoke of the flying saucers. Soon I began to believe that these strange sky objects might be space craft from other inhabited planets. The writings of many others then began to fill a gap in my mind to help me understand our universal belonging. Many of my friends and co-workers in the past few years have been surprised by my positive statements that these saucers were space ships or observation craft from larger space ships. Since I had never placed much reliance on scientific pronouncements of the uninhabitable nature of the planets in our solar system, it seemed only proper and reasonable that they were visitors from neighbouring planets. Everything went along in this manner for several years. I was in no way a flying saucer fanatic. I had accepted them for what many people now know them to be. One day last summer (1952), we received a letter from George H. Williamson, an anthropologist living in Prescott, Arizona. He knew our mutual interest and said that if we were ever in Prescott we should come to see him and his wife. This letter was ignored for almost two months. Then, one day, we decided to take the time to make the somewhat long drive through Flagstaff and Williams to the small, mountain town of Prescott. We enjoyed a fine drive through some of the most beautiful scenery in the Southwest. We found Mr. and Mrs. Williamson to be very interesting young people. We discussed the legends he had collected amongst the Indian people and we mentioned the flying saucers. We then looked over many clippings and numerous reports of this strange serial phenomena. After our dinner, we decided to play a few parlour games. I had heard of automatic writing but had never actually tried it or even seen it done. Since my knowledge of it was small, I had never really formed any opinion regarding it. After all, we were just performing a parlour trick. Or were we? Two people were supposed to grasp a pencil held over a sheet of paper. The moment we started our stunt, the most amazing and incredible information began to appear on the paper! My wife Betty and I had hardly ever mentioned saucers and certainly we never discussed automatic writing. At once, she was confused and somewhat upset. Before she had met the Williamsons she thought she had married a crazy man because of my weird interests. Now she was certain she had just met two more candidates for the State Sanatorium. But she was courteous and waited. We didn't have long to wait to see proof of the reality of our contact. As I stated, I had always believed the saucers to be interplanetary in origin, but like everyone else I only knew what could be found in the daily papers and magazines. After discovering that Mr. and Mrs. Williamson had found ancient legends and accounts dealing with strange sky objects in the lore of primitive people, I really sat up and began to take notice. It was most interesting to know that these people of a bygone age had preserved knowledge of the very thing that today was causing such world-wide attention. We realize that mature people do not take the results of parlour tricks very seriously. At first, neither did we; but the nature of the messages demanded that we investigate more thoroughly. I feel that many ideas and impressions come to certain receptive minds that could only have their origin in that vast storehouse of all knowledge: The Universe. Perhaps many of our great discoveries came about in this way. It is the explorer in man that drives him ever onward to new knowledge of this Universe. There are many things in this report that will not be readily acceptable to many. This is to be expected of any publication dealing with the flying saucers. The term saucer itself is a laughter-provoking word. How ironic this is! The greatest happening in the history of mankind and it was ushered into the world as a joke by many. These saucers that fly in our skies come to us from that great beyond that we have not yet begun to explore. What could they teach us? We anxiously awaited their answers!   next headline,is part 5, Parlour Diary. Remember that this is a Documentary Report, and truth is almost always stranger than fiction. All happenings listed herein are true and factual. Some of the methods used to make contact are certainly alien to our present ways of thinking. The Radio Diary which follows this section, will be readily acceptable to many, and will give them an opportunity to make the necessary links to reality as we understand reality. This report contains a timely message. We have decided to tell it exactly as it happened and to fictionalize none of the story. If the reader refuses to accept recent developments in the field of Parapsychology and the work of Dr. Rhine at Duke University, that is his or her privilege. But the fact that there is such a thing as Extra-Sensory Perception cannot be denied. Many well-known scientists and universities are conducting experiments in telepathy. They realize that if we probe deeper into the man non-physical, we may eventually discover more about the fundamental nature of the human being and his place in the Universe--where he stands in relation to the entirety. When F. A. Mesmer first brought mesmerism (now known as hypnotism) into notice in Vienna, about 1775, he was pronounced a charlatan. For many years hypnotism was considered a magician's trick or the work of the devil. There are many people today who still consider it as such, but medical associations have recommended its use to physicians and dentists. And it is being used daily throughout the world by reputable men of science. Automatic writing itself, belongs to the order of mediumship known as mental, but at first sight it appears to be of the physical order. One has only to remember how difficult it is to cultivate the art of writing to realize that at all times the co-operation of the individual's own mind, although not necessarily of his consciousness, is necessary. Automatic writing has often been produced by medical men from the patient's subconsciousness; and it is reasonable to conclude that the medium's subconsciousness is operative when such writing is impelled by an outside communicator. Researchers in the psychic phenomena field have claimed that this writing can either be from the medium's subconsciousness or it can be from some disembodied entity. If this is so, then we can understand how telepathy in the form of automatic writing could be accomplished between two living beings in the same plane of existence, but located in widely separated areas. Distance, whether two miles or two million miles, would not be an important factor. We know now that this telepathic contact can be made with human beings of outer space without the use of ,my device such as a pencil. However, this initial contact needed something whereby those receiving the messages would not think it was the product of their own minds. They could more readily accept what was written down in front of them in black and white. In his book, Men o f Other Planets, Kenneth Heuer (Lecturer at Hayden Planetarium) says, `We do not know all that there is to know about the nature of the universe, and we are only beginning to learn a little about the science of the human mind or soul and its operations, powers and functions. The distance from the earth to Mars is nothing where the transmission of the force of attraction is concerned; it is almost insignificant in the case of light, a few minutes sufficing for a wave of light to traverse those millions of miles. Experiments made in the domain of magnetism equally prove that space is nothing for the will power of a mesmerist; and one day it may be possible, through some great strides in psychology, to establish communication between two beings on two different worlds.' At different stages in the reception of the following messages, we altered our method of contact at the request of the space intelligences. As stated above, our first contact was through automatic writing using a sheet of paper and a lead pencil. The second method was employed to make it easier on us, and to speed up the transmission of words. We took a large sheet of ordinary wrapping paper and drew on it the letters of the alphabet and the numbers from 1 through 10. This still did not prove entirely satisfactory, so we made what we later called the `board.' It consisted of the same letters and numbers, plus the words `Yes' and `No' and a plus sign on the right side and a minus sign on the left side. These signs indicated positive and negative. This was much easier than holding a pencil for a long period of time. A glass tumbler was inverted and used as a 'locator.' It moved over the paper surface with considerable ease. Since the letters and figures were now arranged in a circular form, the transmission was speeded up greatly. Messages received in the above manner follow: 2 August 1952 'Masar to Saras.' (After much questioning we learned that Masar was the planet Mars and Saras was our planet Earth. It is interesting to note that Saras or Saros means `repetition' in the ancient Chaldean language.) By your year of 1956 there must be a new Saras. Bell Flight 9 (Crystal Bells are the saucers) should land on Saras in 1956. Organize yourselves. There must be peace of mind. You are all for a purpose. You have a destiny. Don't fight Universal Truth! `You are a dead civilization. We want your co-operation. Time is limited. I am Nah-9 of Solar X Group. I am the leader of a contact group. We were seen over Southern California last night and early today.' (Sunday, 3 August, newspapers carried stories of Air Force jet fighter bases being alerted for instant pursuit of saucer objects. They had been seen over the Mojave Desert at 11:45 p.m., Friday night, 1 August, and Saturday morning at 12:14 a.m., 2 August. Our contact had told us this information before we knew they had been observed.) `Good and evil forces are working now. Organization is important for the salvation of your world. Contact us as soon as you can. `There is a mass of planets in the organization. Why are your peoples unbelievers? You have begun the research. The time is up to you! Look up into the skies above you, don't lose contact with each other... `We are friends of those interested, but we are not interested in those of the carnal mind. By that we mean the stupid preservation of self; disregarding the will of the Creative Spirit and His Sons. `Your world has been observed for over 75,000 years. A survey was begun long ago of this planet Earth. How can we deny the eternal verities; Life, God, the Creator's place in the divine scheme? How can we sit by and watch the progress of evil men on this blob, the Earth? Come now, if you wish the answers that all mankind has been searching for since time began. You are wishing for these answers. `Our group will be a duplicate of yours. We represent the people of outer space, you represent your world Saras. Cycles are computed by a group for this known as "Timekeepers." `We have not wanted to interfere with men of Saras before. All men must make their progress wherever they are. But we cannot stand by and see another waste. `We are all of the same Creation! Warning! "There will soon be a destructive blast to be felt on Saras. "This is of your own manufacture. Evil planetary men, who abound, will attempt contact with evil men of Saras for destruction! The good men of Saras must unite with the ben men of Universe. (ben means good). Great destruction can be caused by your H-bomb. It could all come too soon. Some destruction will come for sure! We have been alerted. We repeat, it is most important that you organize. `Jupiter-9999, Ankar-22 speaking: Bell Flight from Jupiter joining Masar. Jupiter now leading group. Mercury, Morning Star (Venus), Andromeda-26470 and Wolf-359 are also in group. There are all he (males) in our group. Yon must have a group for contact. Band yourselves together. Kadar Lacu speaking: `I am head of Interplanetary Council-Circle on Master-craft. I am elected from the Universe. `Why don't you all go eat now? We were wondering when you were going to wake up to the fact you are hungry. We have stomachs too, and we are empty. Meet you here at 8:30 tonight. Signing off.' We had eaten early and were now ready for a light lunch. The above shows that the saucer intelligences have a sense of humour. This was evidenced several times during contact with them. At 8:30 p.m. we again received messages: `It takes much mind power for our thoughts to reach you on Saras in this manner. Again we say that you must be very well organized amongst yourselves. For better contact we suggest a powerful receiving set or radio. You should have your own set as our set is radically different. But we can reach you in this manner. Our people have trod your byways. Have you not seen us? Bell Flight-9 is a Masar flight to Saras. Masar means Mars. The name Mars has been passed down to you in legend, but it is known to us as Masar. By 1956 Bell Flight-9 will come to Saras. [It may have come secretly--Editor] We have chosen you as you have chosen us and we know what your purpose is. It has been known since the very beginning. You all have a job to do for this Earth. Some chosen ones will be removed from Saras. Separate black from white (races are not meant here) and only a few will be saved. This is to preserve Earthian thought beginnings. Changes can take place, however. Yes, there will be a new Earth! There is much we must cope with. Your actions and plans will be guided by the powers of the Universe with the Creative Spirit's guidance. The evil forces of darkness will tell you that you can die for all of the research you are doing. They will say you can be destroyed, so the ben can never accomplish a plan.' At 9:40 p.m. we received the following: 'Ankar-22 speaking of outer space contact: You have read about the recent explosions on Masar. These were not of our doing but were caused by your atomic experimentation. This caused extreme volcanic eruptions on Masar. Our bells are saucers. Crystal bells. Mankind must awaken or there will be an end to your civilization. More sincere ones will be added to your group as time goes on.' In December 1951, Mr. Tsunco Saheki, Director of the Mars Section of the Oriental Astronomical Association and Lecturer at the Municipal Planetarium in Osaka, Japan, observed strange phenomena on Mars. There was a strange bright spot on the Tithonius Lacus and a large `snowstorm' over the south polar regions. He said that the theory that it was caused by Martian volcanic eruption or fire seemed most likely. However, volcanic activity has never been reported on Mars before. But that means it has never been observed during the history of astronomical observation, which began approximately in the seventeenth century with the use of the telescope. Of course it was never observed before! Our experimentation has caused it to occur now for the first time due to earth's atomic explosions! Also, a huge greyish cloud, sixty miles high and nine hundred miles in diameter, was observed on Mars in January 1950. The only theory offered was that it was caused by an extremely violent explosion, possibly a volcano and volcanic ash cloud. Again they said that such volcanic activity was unknown in Mars history. A worldwide observation was ordered, but no progress in understanding the phenomenon was made. It was originally observed by two Japanese scientists. next headline, 6 August 1952. 'Zrs, my name. Transmitting. We will leave more definite information with you soon. Signing off at 9:30 p.m.' 9 August 1952. `I am Regga of Masar, Council Circle meets. You were assembled tonight. Oara is here. He is the planetary representative of Saturn. I must tell you a few things of interest. These true facts may even surprise you, but they are so. Many of your people on Earth know them to be true. Your Sun, which is our Sun also, is not a hot flaming body. It is a cool body. One of our great astronomers believed this and stated it. The so-called solar prominences are as cool as your aurora borealis (northern lights). You do not necessarily have to have heat just because you have light. Look at your firefly. You think your Sun gives off great heat because you can "feel" it. Certain forces come from the Sun and when they enter the earth's magnetic field this resonating field causes friction. And from friction you get heat. There are other facts about the Sun I cannot tell you now. In outer space the Sun does not appear as bright as it does to you on Earth.' next headline, 10 August 1952. 'Nah-9 here and also Zrs. Zrs is from Uranus. All planets are inhabited. Many moons are inhabited also. Planets were created to sustain the life of the human race. Your scientists are planning on going into space in rocket ships. You may get to your Moon, but not beyond that. Both of your Moons (yes, you have two; one is the `dark moon' of Earth. You never see it because of certain conditions) are within your own magnetic field. If you try to leave field with rocket power or atomic power you will be torn to pieces. Your first Moon is not as far away as you think. Your scientists say that the mean distance between the centres of the Earth and Moon is 238,857 miles. Distortion is present, they are wrong. Your first Moon has an atmosphere and water. Some of your scientists have observed snowstorms on the Moon. They have even seen meteors plunge through the Moon's atmosphere. There must be an atmosphere if they see them burn up. There are even inhabitants on the Moon! We have many bases of interplanetary nature there, also.' At 12.13 p.m. Nah-9 again tried for a contact with us, but he claimed there was interference of some kind. next headline, 17 August 1952, 8.25 p.m. `I am Zo. I am head of a Masar contact group, but my home is Neptune. I am going to Pluto soon. Pluto is not the cold, dreary world your astronomers picture it to be. Mercury is not a hot, dry world, either. If you understood magnetism you would then see why all planets have almost the same temperatures regardless of distance from great Sun body. Sister rites are Universal rites. They are rotting. Earth is backward, too many wars. Peace to all men everywhere.' `Regga speaking. Please put water on your stove to boil. It will help our contacting you at this time.' 'Zo again. "To apples we salt, we return." You may not understand this strange saying now, but someday you will. It is from one of our old prophecy legends. Rites will save your people. We are here to warn you. If there is dissension amongst you we will not contact you. Be calm and quiet! We have only love for all men. We hold certain councils on Uranus. We must now decide what to do about your planet Earth. Your bombs will destroy Universal balance. Your Hydrogen Bomb could make an asteroid belt out of you. This happened many years ago to planet of the fifth orbit. We knew what they were doing but we didn't interfere. We cannot stand by and see another waste. After their destruction there were terrible disasters on Masar. Great volcanic eruptions took place. Many of our people perished. We would have been thrown out of the Solar System and lost if we had not quickly constructed two artificial satellites. Some of your scientists have noticed that Phobos and Deimos reflect too much light to be made of earthy substance. They are right. They are metallic in nature. They readjusted our unstable condition and saved a planet.' It is true that the ancient poets knew of the satellites of Mars before their discovery and ancient astrological works mention them. Jonathan Swift in Gulliver's Travels, 1726, wrote that Mars had two satellites and his complete description of them was most accurate. They were actually discovered as late as 1877 by Asaph Hall of the Naval Observatory in Washington. How did Swift and all these other individuals know that Mars had two moons? It seems strange indeed, and one can only make guesses. 'Touka of Pluto speaking: Sister towers interfere with our contact with you. Turn on your portable radio here in kitchen. You will hear us!' This didn't make much sense to any of us. How could we hear them on a simple portable radio? And did they mean that the new radio station at Winslow, Arizona, was interfering? `Regga : Friday and everyday we will try radio. We wait. Try to listen for us, and get a better radio, a more powerful set. Go to see Mr. R, a radioman. He will be all right if spoken to right. Tell him the truth, that you heard that if the saucers are from space they might be contacted by the radio. It is most important that you contact us by this means. That is what we meant before when we told you to contact us as soon as possible! Contact between 340 kc. and 400 kc. Get a telescope, if you can. It will be a sin to witness the bombs. Listen to the radio signals we are now giving to you. Bell Flight-8 is to Arizona. We eat. But go look for a radio set. We are happy. Try 400 kc. We may even talk to you! Go in your car to the railroad station. Ask there about someone who might have a radio set. Listen to us. We will be over Winslow 8-22-52, 7 miles altitude.' A staff member at Lowell Observatory, Flagstaff, Arizona reported to a friend of ours that on 8-22-52 they would focus the large telescope for terrestrial observation over Winslow, but did not say what they were looking for or why. No mention was made of the source of information that caused this observation to be made. We thought this strange, indeed. Why would they be interested in something in our skies the very night Regga had told us they would be over Winslow? We followed our instructions and went to the railroad station. We asked the telegraph operator on duty if he knew of a `ham' operator who might co-operate with us. He gave us the name of a well-known licensed operator. We talked to him over the phone and asked him to listen on his receiver to 400 kc. and see what he could hear. We waited while he went to his set. Finally he came back to the phone and said, `Some crazy guy is sending a series of V's, that's all.' We thanked him for his help and co-operation, and hung up. We then returned to the apartment, and when we turned on the portable kitchen radio, turned down as far as we could go, we did hear "•••-" repeated several times. One of us knew `C Q' in code so we asked them to send that over the radio if it was truly them. And sure enough, `C Q' was immediately forthcoming! This was truly amazing. We could hardly believe what was taking place. But with their superior equipment this was understandable. We decided to continue with our crude `board.' 'Zo speaking: I am on Bell Flight-8 at 50 miles altitude. We promise to transmit on 340 kc. to 405 kc. with International Morse Code 8-22-52 at 7 miles altitude.' We wondered if Lowell Observatory's information source was as strange as ours. And were they instructed to look at the skies on 8-22-52 as we were instructed to listen on this date? Now we were really excited ! Was it actually true? Would we really hear men of other worlds over Mr. R's receiver? Would they answer our many questions, and what message did they have for Saras? It seemed they did not want to give too much information over the `board.' We now know that by establishing contact with us on radio they knew we would accept what they said. They knew that the `board' messages did not prove their existence positively. No matter how startling the information was, they knew the materialistic phenomenon of code would go far in establishing their absolute identity. Someone had said we were in communication with low grade spirits. And that these spirits were having a good time by telling us weird lies. But we knew that spirits would not tell us to go to a radio set, for they would be cutting off their only means of communication with us. We felt sure these spirits couldn't use a radio transmitter and send us messages in International Morse Code! Other saucer research groups had suggested systems of coloured lights to attract space craft. But we agreed with our newly found friends from space, that radio was by far the best method of contact. And what would it lead to? A personal face-to-face contact with men of other planets? We dared not have such high hopes, but we wondered! Here at last would be positive proof that the flying saucers were interplanetary craft. It seemed hardly possible that by the use of a simple parlour trick, we had contacted other intelligent Universal individuals. On 22 August 1952 the strangest and most wonderful adventure of our life began! next headline, part 6,Radio Diary. In our endeavor to establish radio contact with the flying saucers or other space craft, a radioman whom we called Mr. R was contacted by Al. This man had a great deal of experience in his field and held a commercial license as well as an amateur ham license. Mr. R was skeptical, but quite willing to try a contact. Arrangements were at once made to listen on Friday evening, 22 August 1952 All messages received by radiotelegraphy will be capitalized throughout this Diary. All other messages (from the `board,' etc.) will be in small letters enclosed within quotation marks. On the evening of 22 August 1952, Mr. R saw what he thought was a very small meteor display over Winslow, Arizona. He also observed what appeared to be a very bright light traveling at a high altitude in the sky above him. He turned on his receiver to 400 kc, and many strange signals were heard but not identified. Al, Mr. and Mrs. R were in the R's kitchen later when they all suddenly heard strange, clear code signals coming to them. They all thought it must be coming from the radio shack in the backyard, but when they went to check, there was nothing to be heard there. After they came back to the kitchen, the mysterious code was heard again! It seemed to be coming from the very air itself! About 2:00 a.m., 23 August 1952 code signals were again received. Mr. R said it sounded as though two people were talking back and forth to each other using code. However, he said it was a code unfamiliar to him. He couldn't make any sense out of it at all. This strange code used a system of dots and dashes. After all, what else could be devised? It seemed there were more of these dots and dashes used for each letter or symbol than are used in our standard International Morse Code. Mr. R had his pencil and pad before him, and he hoped he might be able to make some sense out of the code coming over his receiver in loud, clear tones. Then he suddenly wrote down ZO, and in a few minutes, AFFA He turned and asked Al if those words meant anything to him. At this time, the name Zo was very, understandable, but the name Affa was not. Nothing else was heard of an identifiable nature. 23 August 1952, 5.18 p.m. `Regga speaking. You made contact with us on radio yesterday. I think Lowell Observatory saw us.' `This is Zo. It wasn't altogether our fault that we didn't make a good contact last night. Affa was talking to me last night. He helps us in many ways. Soon there will be another contact. You have already had good contact with us. Be patient! Affa is from the planet Uranus. He was listening in last night. Be careful... 40 meter band is all right. We will do our best on radio contact. 'Affa of Uranus tries to keep us from talking to you. Uranus doesn't believe in too much contact with the Earth planet. Affa told me not to let you hear us, but I arranged it so you could hear something. He interfered then, but helps otherwise. He was afraid of Lowell Observatory. The `big eyes' were looking at us, and they are doing special work up there on the mountain now. They have installed certain types of electronic equipment. `California earthquake was caused by your planet's magnetic disturbances. We must tell you about Orion. Many there wish to conquer Universe. We are here to warn you of this also. However, we find few receptive persons on Saras. You are helping us now by what you are doing. 'Nah-9 speaking: The Orion Solar Systems are much like Saras. The principles of good and evil are universal. Saras is the lowest in progression in your Solar System, but there are planets in the Creation that are above you and below you in state of progression. There is no beginning or end; no big nor small; no low nor high estate. We are all on the road to All Perfection. We must tell you that Orion is coming soon to Saras in a square star body. The year of decision is soon to come to you! We will be seen by more and more people in 1953, We want to land and you can be of help to us. Will you? We are happy. Be patient, for you were lucky you even heard us on the radio the other night. Affa is afraid Saras is too evil. You wonder how long our space flights take us. It takes only a few minutes to go from Masar to Saras. We do not fly as you think of flying, but we drift or glide on magnetic lines of force. We need no fuel. We operate in a Resonating Electromagnetic Field just like planetary bodies do. Now we are hungry as you are. Sometimes on Neptune we eat Macas. They are similar to your cattle, but they do not have horns and they have very big ears.' `This is Zo. It is now 8:00 p.m. your time. Garr of Pluto is on Saturn. Bell Flight-9 could be sooner than 1956 to Saras. It all depends on future conditions.' `Regga: Be tactful in regards to everything you do. Remember you are dealing with Saras. We join you, it's us. Mr. R must try, try, try. Important now, perhaps only chance. We will tell you more by radio. A landing can be arranged. Our superiors must decide. Fate of all creation here depends on it.' We all wondered what our brothers from other planets looked like and they gave us some information. However, they, are usually reluctant to speak of themselves, for they feel that they are here to serve and there are many other important services to be rendered at this time. `"This is Zo again. I am 5 feet 7 inches tall, and I weigh 148 pounds. I have auburn hair. I am what you would call 25 years old. I am married. I have seven children. We have marriage mates from birth. But you shall see us for yourself someday! We want to give you a code so that we can locate you on radio. Please have Mr. R transmit E U. We will then transmit DA. EU equals Saras and DA equals Outer Space Contact. Mr. R knows more than he tells. He has tried to contact us for about two years now. He never succeeded, however. He tried too high and the time was not right yet. We do have a good life where we are, but wait to ask about that. One of you is interested in our musical instruments. Yes, we do have them. We call them tonas. Mr. R is fine. He is interested in us. We will be on your first Moon tonight. By the way, the craters on your Moon were not caused by meteors nor were they caused by volcanic action. They came about by vortical motion. Use radio. We must contact you. Try 40 meter band to transmit. Receive on 405 kc. The bands may vary at times, but keep trying. Keep listening.' `This is a member of Masar Flight speaking. Saturn Tribunal has given permission for a possible landing. Uranus has to be won over in Universal Tribunal. Saturn is the seat of justice, but not "justice" as you know it. Orion systems want to destroy. You have more than nine planets in your Solar System. Patras is next beyond Pluto, and there are twelve all told.' `Zo again. I will be staying at base on first Moon tonight. We usually take no women on our survey or scientific trips. There are several types of space craft. One is a Scout Craft holding one or two men that appears to fly upside down and has an antenna-like projection on the bottom; another is an arrow-shaped or crescent-shaped craft, it is a Master-Craft for it will guide many crystal bells in mass flight formation; then there is the Mother-Ship that you call a cigar-shaped craft. These latter can be many miles in length and send out the green 'fireballs' to explode, then photographs of the magnetic fault lines can be taken. You would be astonished if you knew what these fireballs really were. They are not the same as your remote-controlled devices. Most bells do not travel between planets, for they are carried within the Mother-Ships. There are ships that look like tubes; craft that are round with an opening in the centre; and triangular-shaped craft. Some of these ships have a high intensity field and others have a low intensity field. The flatter the form, the more intense the field of the craft. The small discs a few inches in diameter are in the fireball class although they are not all used for the same purposes. Saras is like a space ship. We operate the same way. Look and listen. We know what life is. There is no death, for all life is eternal. Peoples of Saras are afraid of death. But it should be a time of rejoicing for a soul has gone on to greater progressions. Pray for the salvation of Creation. Good night, my beloved friends.' This message from Zo gave all of us a warm, friendly feeling. A stronger bond existed after this night between those above and us. We were amazed at the high intelligence of Zo. He was, indeed, a very fine young man. We knew that we no longer needed to fear these space intelligences. Although we hadn't actually feared them, we nevertheless had been aware of the unknown. What would we discover? Would it be beautiful or would it be horrible? Now we knew. On the other planets of our Solar System there was beauty. On Saras there was horror. 24 August 1952 (11:40 a.m.) `This is Actar of Mercury speaking. We are the radio centre for this Solar System because of our nearness to great Sun. We are now on your first Moon. Zo is here, also. Did you know that your blue sky of Earth is due to the Resonating Electro-Magnetic Field? It is the reason your stars twinkle near the horizon and give off so many colors. Your scientists do not know what causes this. Some on Saras know what Chinvat is. Your scientists claim that the Solar System had its beginning in a big cloud of gas and dust. They call this the Nebular Hypothesis. Others speak of the Planetesimal Theory where the sun was supposed to have come closer to another star. But they do not agree on any of these ideas. They must honestly admit that they do not know how the earth and the other planets came into being. Did you know that comets are really planets, however. Planets are made like a snowball rolling down a mountain, and they get bigger and bigger.' `Zo speaking: We can't be sure of contacts ahead of time. Listen at 405 kc.; 40 meters; EU answer back. We want to be sure of everything before we land. Look for others to help our landing. Cosmic conditions (right?) now. Uranus will agree to plans if all parties are in complete co-operation. We just had a meeting and decided. Radio contact is good, but this method (the `board') is not very satisfactory. On your regular radio there is too much of sordid life, just like Saras. (One of our wives said that she liked the soap operas on radio and the answer was, "Pooh!") Earthians don't think. That's why they are in such a mess now. Check? Patras No. 10-QM interfering. We will clear airwaves, wait. Back on the Moon at 12:30 p.m.' Many times, the facts told us by our contacts, were later confirmed. Upon questioning, Mr. R did admit that he had become very interested in the possibility of Interstellar Communication after he read an article on this subject in QST, one of the amateur ham radio magazines. He said he had attempted some sort of contact on a high frequency and a short wave length. A friend of Mr. R, a man high up in radio circles, told him that he had also received strange signals at various times and definitely believed it to be from space intelligences. One day this friend called Mr. R and told him that Lowell Observatory did see the saucers on Friday, 22 August 1952. This confirmed what Zo had told us before. On 2 August 1952 they had told us they had been seen over Southern California. The newspapers of the next day told us exactly the same thing! We learned later that a young man in Los Angeles, California, had made a personal contact with the saucers on the same day, 2 August 1952. The space friends were really working hard at this time. It seemed sightings were being made everywhere, perhaps they were going all out on their `Project Saras,' trying to find receptive minds. next headline, 25 August 1952, (9:25 p.m.) Another attempt was made to establish a more lasting contact with our space friends. We were in the radio shack at Mr. R's. He transmitted EU so they could locate him. Almost immediately a very loud signal came in on the receiver. 'THIS AFFA. SWAP TO 450 KC.' Mr. R quickly changed from 405 kc. to the requested 450 kc. At first we did not know what he was receiving after the switch, for he suddenly jumped up from his seat, almost ran through the closed door, and dashed outside. He was very excited and called to us to come out quickly. He had climbed tip on top of his ham shack and was scanning the sky. We asked him what the message was. After he told us we understood the exuberance of his action. He had received: `COMING IN. COMING IN. COMING IN.' Mr. R thought they meant they were coming in close to Earth and he wanted to get a view of them if possible. We looked and looked but saw nothing. Then, as we all stood on top of the shack, we heard another message coming in over the receiver. We were very quiet so Mr. R could hear the code. This time it was: 'LOOK FOR A DARK SPOT IN THE, SKY. LOOK FOR A DARK SPOT IN THE SKY. LOOK FOR A DARK SPOT IN THE SKY.' Then we all saw a strange, dark object towards the south in the Milky Way. This object stayed in that position for some time, but it was gone at the end of an hour. While we were still outside another message came in, but it was not as loud as the others and it faded out to such an extent that Mr. R did not receive all of it. 'TO US ANOTHER TIME WHEN.' The last message was signed off with: 'DA DA K DA.' We decided at once to try the board. Perhaps we could obtain more information from its use. `This is Zo. Look for us in the west. You will see a steady blue light. The dark spot in the sky was Affa. Keep trying radio. The name of my mate (wife) is Um. She is from Masar. There is a Solar System with the name Twenty-two. This is because there are 22 planets. Elala is the name of Planet 15.' We looked for the blue light in the west and did see it. It was gone in about twenty minutes. `Regga of Masar. We wish to clear up certain things. These are things you have been wondering about. You wonder if we have advanced in medical science. We have not. We have no disease! Disease-ridden bodies are caused by man's wrong living. We are ahead of you in development. You Earth people are always thinking in terms of years. But in your years we are many thousands of years ahead of you. Venus is farther ahead yet, and other planets even more so. We of Masar are next to you in progression. We have slight change in seasons, the other worlds have perfect weather at all times. We have great powers, but we have not destroyed each other because we have followed the Infinite Father. You have not. Yes, you have many churches and seem to worship what you call God. But you worship by word, not by deed. You say, "Peace is for the strong." Your Holy Book tells you, "The meek shall inherit the earth." "Thou shalt not kill," yet you kill. One came and said to you, "Turn the other cheek." But you do not. Your government contacted us a few years ago. They would like to know our secrets, but they never will no matter how hard they try.' The radio contact we were now receiving was the great turning point in our research. Now we knew for sure that we were in contact with men from outer space! We were practically unknown so far as the world was concerned, but they were willing to contact us because we desired to know more about them. We wanted to listen and find out if they knew the answer to what the entire world was asking: Can world peace be a reality? The ones that should have been listening were interested only in discovering the secret of saucer propulsion. In all publications one could only find poor reasoning and logic as one so-called `authority' would ridicule another. The Government itself was contradictory in its statements. There seemed to be much confusion in high places. As of 25 August 1952, Captain Ruppelt of Project Saucer (now known as Project Bluebook and Project Twinkle), said more competent observers than ever before have been reporting saucers. The Captain, who started as a one-man agency, now has eight fulltime assistants. The Air Force is buying a hundred special cameras, which it hopes will help determine what the provocative objects are made of, and it is considering buying several photographic telescopes of a new type, costing as much as five thousand dollars apiece, with which a continuous photographic record can be made nightly of the sky over the whole hemisphere. After several years and nearly two thousand reported sightings of a serious nature, there is no discussion in Air Force circles of abandoning the pursuit of the elusive saucers. If the saucers are a joke, then the Air Force had better stop paying for such expensive equipment with the taxpayers' money. next headline, 26 August 1952. Many of our radio messages are incomplete. This can be readily understood when one considers the great speed of transmission used by the space craft. Mr. R, although a fine radio operator, could hardly keep up with the code given. He said that there was no variation in dots and dashes. In other words, it sounded as though the code was being sent over a mechanical transmitter. Also, many of the words were incorrectly spelled. On closer examination it was found that they were spelled more or less phonetically. When the coded messages would come into Mr. R's receiver, they blocked his set. If there happened to be a weaker code coming in from elsewhere at the same time, it was automatically ridden over. If Mr. R had turned up full volume, it would have been impossible to remain in the ham shack because of the intensity of the sound. Several years ago when Mars came very close to Earth, radio silence was observed every hour on the hour for five minutes, and strange code signals were received by the FCC at that time. They have never been decoded and are now on record in the Bureau of Standards, Washington, DC. It is now known that a few years ago other messages were received just as Regga had told us they were. Yet, this information had been kept from the people. Why? We dare not answer this question! Much information is labeled under that frightening word: National Security. It seems there are those who fear that interplanetary recognition might mean extra-terrestrial allegiance. In other words, in the light of truth, the `jig' is up! The message received by Mr. R On this night follows. He was again listening on 405 kc. `AM NSYKK YAM DE BEK VVK DE AFFA WWAS WWAS SAMT TK VVVVVV AWAS VVVVV VVVVV VVVV AWAS VV AFFAS K AFFAS WAIT AFFAS KMS ZO ZO WAS AFFA ZO OR ANS. DE DE DE DE DE DE DE DE DE DE DE W DE DE DE WMAS DE DE DE WMAS WMAS ANS ON 2.19 ANS 2.19.' At this point there was a pause for several minutes while the weather report and aircraft came in. Then the message continued. `TAKE UT GEE CT DAW AIUN KATTC A UAR JY YOU O E OZ CIAR NMOU IT R YOU WILL SEE US WH NO WIZ NML STCNA IZ ON BETTER TIME WHEN K SHOWS US WHEN YOU ARE READY TO VENTURE C KFPS HM. KI KS NBZS. KKSK KKSK KKZO KRON KRON KTUF KTUF KTZO KTZO KVDE KVDE KVQP LVE LVE TEK.' Mr. R had been listening on 405 kc when the following message came through instructing him to change to 450 kc. As soon as he did, the message continued. `450 TE SA AFFA SWAP YOUR R 450 K SWAP T I ARE YOU APPEAR TO YOU LATER WHEN AS OR SHIP COMPREHEND DA DA K SE WID26 EE WID26 Q QRA WID26.' At this point Mr. R asked them the name of their station. `I RST 57 QRA DE WID26 QRA RRR3 BL.' (End of transmission). FROM MASAR: YOU WILL SEE US IN THE SUN AT HIGH TIME TOMORROW, THIS CAN BE THE SALVATION OF SARAS, IF ALL PLANS GO ACCORDING TO OUR WILL CAN YOU. II KA KARAS IS STILL IN THE AT. WE SHOULD BE IN YOUR AT. TOMORROW IF ALL GOES ACCORDING TO PLAN WITH COUNCIL.' On 40 meter band Mr. R asked, `Can you give us a sign tomorrow" 'YES YES ZO MAYBE IF YOU CAN GET A GLASS CAN BE BY SOLAS AT HIGH TIME SEEN BY LOW. THIS TIME CANT BE SURE DANGER TO OUR 450M COULD USE AGAIN. THIS WILL BE YOUR LAST CONTACT UNTIL SATURDAY WHEN YOU WILL HAVE TWO VISITORS FROM OUTSIDE.' This was a message from Mars! We had thought radio communication with space craft possible, but direct contact with another planet never! Of course, our messages were probably relayed to Mars by the space craft using their superior equipment. Surely the people of outer space were interested in every man, woman and child on Earth. Evidently they meant for us to obtain a telescope and look at the sun at noon. And did they mean that Lowell Observatory was watching? They had told us the Sun was a cool body so we could understand what they meant. Mr. R was amazed and very excited. What had they meant by, `You will have two visitors from outside?' For a moment he thought it was possible two people from outer space were going to pay him a visit. He turned to Al questioningly and said, `Are you expecting any company Saturday?' Al told him that Mr. and Mrs. Williamson were coming to Winslow from Prescott for the week-end. How did Mars receive this information? We wondered! The above radio message is of great interest when considering what happened on Wednesday following. 27 August 1952 The evening newscasts carried the following story. At 12.00 noon a large fleet of aluminum-colored saucers were sighted over Yuma, Arizona. Also, over Yuma at the same time, a jet fighter pilot and his jet plane crashed to the ground. The cause of the accident was claimed to be unknown! next headline, 28 August 1952, The Los Angeles Times carried a very interesting article on this date. The astronomers at Mt. Wilson Observatory had observed strange, gigantic sun-spots on the sun around noon, 27 August 1952. The report stated that these spots were extremely large and that this was a very rare happening as it was now a period of declining sun-spot activity ! Instead of these spots lasting the usual period, they were gone the very next day! Was this the sign they had promised us for High Time? We knew that many observatories were doing considerable research on this saucer problem. The 200-inch Hale telescope on Mt. Palomar, California, was supposed to be probing the vastness of the outer universe. Yet, in October 1952 they spent their time at Mt. Palomar looking over the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, and other bodies of our own Solar System. Why all the sudden interest in the neighboring planets? Was it all to discover some outpost of the space intelligences? We wonder, yet we know that everything this great telescope has discovered has not been made public. On the evening of 28 August 1952 the Bailey's took a drive from Winslow to Prescott to visit us (Mr. and Mrs. Williamson). They saw eight or nine objects in the southwest sky. They seemed to be traveling at a high rate of speed in a V formation. At 11:30 p.m. in Prescott, Arizona, we again made contacts by the board. 'Regga speaking: The sun-spots were a sign to you. We help. The plane at Yuma was an accident, we did not shoot him down. The jet got too near our magnetic field. He saw us. Be patient with Affa, he hasn't learned English well. He is fine. We will do our best. Be careful. All is up to you. We travel speed of light at times. Your scientists say it is 186,000 miles per second. That is correct in some cases, but it is not constant, it varies. Our ships operate on east-west and north-south force lines.' `This is Zo. Our worlds have the same atmosphere as yours. Some men of Saras will make visits someday to our worlds. There are certain men trying hard to contact us, but we will not pay any attention to them. Mr. R was sceptical at first. Remember, Orion is evil. The movie, The Day the Earth Stood Still was for a purpose and was more fact than fiction. Watch all nature for signs of catastrophe. The signs, such as tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, and so on will come to Saras soon and will get worse as time goes on. USSR is aware of us, too. Earth's last mile, we sad. It is impossible to reason with the peoples of Earth. Soon all could end here. Some will not see it, except from elsewhere, from outside.' next headline, 30 August 1952 (12:55 p.m.) During our radio contacts there were usually eight or nine witnesses present in Mr. R's ham shack. Those listed on the affidavit are: Mr. R; Mrs. R; Betty Bowen, student; Ronald Tucker, student; George H. Williamson, anthropologist; Mrs. Betty J. Williamson; Mr. Alfred C. Bailey, Santa Fe Railroad conductor; Mrs. Betty M. Bailey. Others present at various times were relatives and friends. Al's mother, Mrs. Geraldine Bailey of Los Angeles, California, was present on several occasions. She has followed a very dogmatic religion all of her life, yet the very nature of the radio contacts opened her eyes to much truth of a Universal nature. She is now completely convinced of the authenticity of our contacts by radiotelegraphy. Mr. R thought there existed the possibility that a hoax was being perpetrated on him. He was now certain of the sincerity of all of us, but perhaps some other ham had been sending the `space' messages. He has a calculating, scientific type of mind and he wanted to be sure. If it was true he wanted to continue with it. If it was a hoax he wanted it to end, and quickly. We felt his skepticism was justifiable. After all, truth will stand any test. One night, in the radio shack, Mr. R decided to try a test. He told none of the witnesses present what he was going to do, not even his own wife. In fact, he finally told us about a week after the happening. He needed plenty of time to think it over. This test was of such a nature that, if the messages were a hoax, they would have been revealed as such immediately. He was seated at his radio set, with his back to all those present. He had sent a question over his transmitter on the 40 meter band and he received an answer. Without any warning he quickly switched to 160 meters and asked another question. To his surprise, an answer was soon forthcoming! Any radioman knows that no power on Earth would have enabled any operator to know where he was switching to! Even if Mr. R had told the other operator that he was going to switch to 160 meters, still they would not have found him on that band until after the question had been asked. And, of course, they couldn't have answered the question if they hadn't heard it! An operator cannot make such a switch without telling what he is going to do and then giving plenty of time for the other side to find him on the new band. The space intelligences really passed this simple, but very exacting test. This proved one of two things: Perhaps the space friends were using telepathy. Why not? If they are far ahead of us in development they have possibly acquired proficiency in Extra-Sensory Perception. It is also possible that their superior equipment allows them to receive no matter what band is used in communicating with them. It really matters little how it was accomplished. The important thing is that it was done! This was undeniable proof to Mr. R. He no longer had any doubts in his mind; he wanted to learn more. `This is Zo speaking. We might even talk over radio to you soon. Use radio tonight on 450 kc. Or 405 kc. All on Moon. Council meets. Interested researchers represent Saras, as you do.' `Affa is here. Oarhae retto! We speak the original language. We call it the Mother or Solar Tongue. The Solex Mal. Peoples of Saras spoke this Universal language long ago. Your Holy Book tells you the story of this. Your linguists will tell you that all languages appear to come from a common language. They do not know what this language is, however. It is closely related to the most ancient languages on Saras and antedated them. It is a symbolical pictographic language. All men of other worlds speak this language. You are a divided people, and you speak many tongues.' `This is Kadar Lacu. I am head of the Universal Tribunal. I am now on the Planet Hatonn in Andromeda.' `Regga speaking. We will try hard to see you soon. Greetings to Mr. R. Try 405 kc. and 450 kc. Our sets are quite different, but we contact you. Your government knows who we are.' We had planned a radio contact for the night of 30 August 1952 since we were present as the radio contact had said we would be. We believe failure resulted because of the unexpected visitor who came to the ham shack. There was a great deal of confusion, while we tried to explain to him the nature of what we had been receiving. He was the type of person who refuses to believe in saucers or extra-terrestrial people. If one landed in front of him, he would explain it away. Anyway, the radio was silent this night. 31 August 1952 `This is Zo. Try not to be unattentive tonight, please. Concentrate. Send EU often over radio so we can locate you on beams of ionized particles. We can direct a beam straight to your antenna. We can locate you from ends of Omniverse.' `Actar speaking. Certain great powers in your world wish to see us go away or see us destroyed. Neither will happen. These powers fear us, and when you fear anything you hate it. All planets have come to help certain ones on Saras. Those of the right mind are one with us! We will not harm anyone, only their own thoughts can do that. Evil destroys evil. Bounce back! Certain seeds have been placed on Saras. To the apples we salt, we return.' 'Kadar Lacu, my brothers. I am several hundred years old. A mere youth. The time has come to reveal these things to you. If man would only realize that he should love his brother.' `Be at attention. I am Ponnar, a Universal Head. I am on Hatonn.' `This is Sedat speaking. I am the Universal Record Keeper. Your records and those of many others are here on Hatonn in the Temple of Records. The planet known as Elala was once called Wogog.' `Ponnar again, we are very strong now. Magritonic waves at pitch of 999887 and micomitronic vibrations can tear a radio receiver to pieces if not used correctly. Mr. R wonders why we have not contacted well-known scientists. We have contacted them, but many will not listen. They think Universal laws are insane. Garr of Pluto is here, also Oara of Saturn and Zo, he is on Moon. More detonations soon, more disasters on Saras. Quickly, not too much time left. Worlds can end. Many scientists will refuse to continue work on bombs.' (Later, 9,000 physicists signed a petition against the use of atomic energy.) Although we tried desperately for radio contact this night, we received nothing. One very loud signal came in about 9:10 p.m. and completely blocked Mr. R's set. It lasted for about 15 seconds. It is possible it was a space craft, but nothing of value was learned from it. A strange reddish light like a fireball flashed across the northern Arizona skies about 9:28 p.m. It was viewed in Albuquerque, New Mexico; Kingman, Arizona; and Prescott, Arizona. In Albuquerque, the fireball appeared bluish-green. The CAA reported it had received radio reports of the strange object from planes in the air at the time. 1 September 1952 (12:45 p.m.) 'Kadar Lacu. Too many people last night. Much confusion. Fewer the better for mind concentration. Otherwise conflicting thoughts. We have not traveled all the way to Saras to give misinformation. Many receptive people of Saras have been living with those who are doltish for too long. Seeds may be planted but they can rot and never reach maturity.' `Ponnar speaking. Do not think of us as Gods. We are men like yourselves. We are only far ahead of you in progression. What we are today you can be tomorrow. The Creative Spirit is greater than man. At mention of His name, all worlds should bow. Do not speak of Him lightly. When it is safe we shall come in on radio. If you knew how soon destruction could come to Saras you would go screaming through the streets! We have saved your world several times already. The United Nations would believe certain men, if catastrophes were foretold before they happened. Maybe certain men will be raised for this duty. It is later than you think! You must at all times try to be in harmony with each other. Love one another, my friends.' 3 September 1952 (8.23 p.m.) 'Ponnar speaking. There are now many young people in your world who understand our message. They will accept it quickly for they are of the New Age. The Great Awakening is here. Many of our people are in your world now, and many people of Saras have been taken to outer space through the years. There is a young man in Ohio you must contact. He is of the right mind and heart. Many will not believe, but there are many who have received information as you have, and they will be joyous to know of your work. The so-called meteor seen Sunday over your area was us. It was a ball-globe being on its duty. We will be seen in the skies often. But do not strain to see us. When it is right for you to view us, you will. Our love to you all.' 11 September. I952 (5:30 p.m.) `This is Zo. We will soon be at our meeting place on Fowser, the "dark" moon of your Earth. You are wondering about the Cosmic Dust cloud that you have heard shall soon come to Saras. Yes, this is true. It will come. And it will darken the Sun and Moon. Strange things will happen in your world. Great meteors shall be seen in the skies. I hope we might have a landing soon. Try radio again soon. USSR has been doing research in magnetic science. Recently many scientists were destroyed in Baltic area when a terrific explosion took place there. You will always notice a drop in temperature after these explosions. Oara of Saturn is here. You must know that Saras is a Masar name for your planet. Others call your world Chan. (Chan is very similar to certain ancient words meaning, 'afflicted'.) If we can arrange a landing do not fear impostors. You can be sure it will be us. On Hatonn your records can be seen. All thoughts are recorded there. Crystals are valuable to us. With a crystal miracles can be performed. Do not forget that there are evil forces. They will try to break you up, but stay together now, for the time is close. Do not get sidetracked. End soon, time short.' At 9:00 p.m. we received a wonderful message from the Saturn Tribunal. It humbled us and made us realize that it was very necessary for us to be of one mind. `Zo again. As time goes by, the way will be made harder and harder to make contact with us for evil will be pushed closer and closer to Saras. Therefore, we must make landing contact soon. Be very careful. You may go your own way if you wish, but you know what we have told you. If you believe us you will act accordingly. What you do with this knowledge is up to you. What we have told you will all come to pass. No man knows the hour, but it will come. Others have been told, but they went the way of all flesh on Saras. That is why we have been around for so long. Evil forces are always strong. Human nature has always fought this forbidden knowledge. Forces play on human frailties. Many have known in centuries past, but they either go insane because they could not live Universal Law or because they could not meet change. All changes but change itself. Few have been receptive, but you have been. Therefore, we have been interested in you. You know what must be done, so do it. We will do our part if you do yours. If there is disharmony amongst you, we are confused and cannot make definite plans. We must know what you intend to do. We told you over the radio to show us when you are ready to venture. The blind of Saras are more blind now. People cannot see the handwriting on the wall.' `Ponnar. Look to Him for strength in this hour of universal doom. Without Him, all is lost. The Creative Spirit watches.' 'Kadar Lacu speaking. Do you realize what is at hand? Are our signs to you not enough? Every step you take is a part of a plan to further progress. Has not everything we told you come true?' `Zo, my brothers. We happy to know all of you, but we are sad now. We hope you feel in heart as we do. We have told you that if it is possible for us to impress you, then evil forces can impress you too. Certainly you are not compelled to do as we say. But we must co-operate with each other. All must help. If there is one mind out of tune, all is lost. We did not intend for you to stay up nights. After all, you are adults now and must regulate your own daily schedule. There is work to be done, but when it is done is your own individual problem. We wait. We cannot fight opposition. After all, that is the trouble with Saras now. Men cannot get together and love each other. We are humble; want you to be humble, too.' `I am Suttku, Judge of Saturn Council. We know what is in your minds.' `This is Wan-4 of the Safanian Solar System speaking. We are pledged to those of receptive minds for all time past. But you can break the bonds tying us together if you will it. It is your choice, my friends.' `Regga. You must decide now. Council waits. Worlds hang in balance. We can't wait much longer. Our time is short. If some of us must be sacrificed, then His will be done. We have come to Saras over millions of miles at a terrible cost. This has been because of our love for all men, everywhere. We are here to help those who wish to be helped. You have done nothing to displease us. But certain forces will try to discourage you in this undertaking that lies just ahead of you. Remember that weeks ago we told you to organize, be careful, and to be of one mind. The Universe awaits. Do you understand? We cannot do anything but good. Law of Universe. If we do anything but good, then we are evil. You want to do good, we know that.' `This is Adu of Hatonn. You are given impressions on what to do. There are those on Saras who contact us this way. But you have not yet learned to separate your own thoughts from ours. Action speaks louder than words. That is an old Saras saying. We act, you act. Push-pull. Do whatever you think is right and necessary. We will guide you with the help of the Infinite Father.' `Zo. We will not tell you what to do. Up to you. Council waits. What are you going to do? Plan. We must know. Then decide your steps. Be positive now. We can land soon. Certain conditions are necessary. You know what. Our regards to you. We cry, we are sad.... No one will listen to us!' `Ponnar. We help you. All will be lost on Saras. All men's dreams and ambitions gone in a second. We are trying to help, that is why we are here. Uranus is still unsure. We go. Look for us later tonight. Go now to first Moon. Salutes! Good-night, my friends.' 15 September, 1952 (9:30 p.m.) On 13 and 14 September 1952, loud, strong signals were picked up by Mr. R. However, no code came in. `Ponnar speaking. The Cosmic Dust Storm is true, I confirm its coming to Saras.' 19 September 1952 (6:30 p.m.) `Zo again. Ro from the Toresoton Solar System is here with me and wishes to greet you. We walk the streets, but cannot come to visit with you in your home just yet. We cannot say why. We have friends on Elala, Planet 15 in Solar System 22. The Four Great Primary Forces are: Static Magnetic Field; Electro-Static Field; Electro-Magnetic Wave; Resonating Electro-Magnetic Field. Your scientists do not understand the last one mentioned. We have a symbol for this in the Solex Mal. It is similar to your so-called swastika. The Four Forces coming out of the Creator. It is one of the most ancient of Saras symbols. That is not strange. It is because the ancient people of your world understood nature and this knowledge has since been lost to you.' 20 September 1952 (8:30 p.m.) `This is Zo. We can hear you no matter what meter band you send on. We have heard all the messages you have sent to us by radio transmitter, and more. We have impressed you from time to time, and will continue to do so. Now what I am about to tell you will seem foolish. It is the way we do things at times. This is so it will all appear in a most conventional manner. You were impressed to go and see a certain motion picture. You did not know that the cartoon was Bugs Bunny in The Hasty Hare. We mentioned Bugs Bunny to you several times before, but you thought it was foolish and did not enter it into your records. We had our reasons. This cartoon was about a flying saucer and its coming to Earth. You saw the letter held in the hand of the saucer pilot and you noticed that its date was 9-27. This date is important in 1952. You will see!' `Actar of Mercury speaking. Mr. R is to transmit EU EU WE ARE READY TO VENTURE. Then we will answer. We will tell you whatever is necessary over your receiver.' Since our space friends talked of a landing so often, we decided to have a picnic in the mountains and perhaps they would land for us. This way we could relax, away from the activity of town, and enjoy a fine week-end. If 27 September was important we wanted to be in on it. (Mr. and Mrs. Williamson arrived in Winslow on 26 September). 27 September 1952 (12:10 p.m.) `Zo speaking. Try tomorrow for a landing as planned. Worlds can be saved. There is a meeting on Pluto. Kadar Lacu is there. Mr. R must try radio often. This contact must be a success.' 'Wan-4. Some of us are from distant systems. Oara, Actar, Ro, and Nah-9 send their greetings to you.' 'Suttku. We are assembling on Moon now. Danger to you as landing becomes a reality. Landing area you picked is not perfect, but good. We will circle area for several minutes first. We usually do this. We are feeling good over this, my friends.' 'Kadar Lacu again. Actar is with Nah-9 of Solar X Group in the ship, "Trocton." I am on Pluto. Masar will be in your atmosphere tonight. Try for radio contact for sure. Love.' `Zo. Plan well to avoid slip-ups. Follow our instructions or we cannot come in. Some will try to trick us. Must be careful. Mr. R must try to be calm while at radio. He wants contact very much. Too much concentration is a block. We will protect the group. My wife, Um, is the first woman in her position to come into your atmosphere. She comes to help the women of group. Prepare yourselves quickly now. There must be harmony. Try hard. Do the best you can.' `This is Lomec of Venus. I am with Terra on Ship-49 coming in to Saras. You will be contacted tonight by radio. Greetings to all.' We had a short rest and continued our contact at 5:30 p.m. `Zo. Many are here and greet you. Kadar Lacu had a meeting on Pluto with Touka. We are now several miles above you. 2:00 p.m. is all right for landing tomorrow. Be sure to try radio tonight. There must be no confusion. Watch. Worlds wait. My young son, Elex, greets you all. He is with me now. If you only knew what you did to your body by smoking you would quit at once! We never use tobacco. It is poison. Bell Flight of 200 craft from Safanian Solar System; 500 from the Toresoton Solar System. There are 14,000 bells near the second Moon, Fowser. We have many bells in our mother-craft.' It was 5.30 p.m. when they told us they were over Winslow. At 5:55 p.m. we heard a tremendous swishing sound and a roar. The neighbors heard it also and couldn't figure out what it was. It was definitely not a jet plane. It was a sound that we couldn't recognize. It was more like the sound of a big beehive. After we went outside we saw them in the distance moving at great speed through the sky. `Actar speaking. Try 405 kc. tonight. Ronem.' `This is Um, wife of Zo. I have my own ship called, "Belga." Women do not ride with men on journeys to Saras because of the nature of such trips. My love to each and every one of you.' `I am Noro, my brothers. Head of landing contact group. Here are instructions for you. Ship of Planet Masar will attempt landing Saras tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. Ship of Regga with Zo. Its name is "Clacteem." Many Crystal Bells over your world tonight.' 'Kadar Lacu speaking. I designed the ship "Clacteem." It is a special landing craft. We will have much to tell you when we see you. Our form will touch your form. It is the Father's plan. Mr. R may not wish to go. He is needed on Saras for a purpose. All of this is up to you. Whatever you wish to do.' `This is Zago of Contact Group. When we land we shall say to you in the Solex Mal: "Tu Vec Satum Do Pattla Barraga." Then you will answer us by saying, "Udum Regan Vec Yonto Nictum Barraga." Vec means space. Barraga means friends.' 'Kadar Lacu again. Landing ship is being readied on Fowser. Big observatories of world look at Moon and see many craft there. They know they are not seeing locusts. Radio tonight.' `Ponnar speaking. Soon I shall have beautiful words to say to you.' In the evening we were at Mr. R's in the ham shack. We all felt that we would have a contact with our space friends, for they always told us the truth. Eight people were present besides Mr. R's father-in-law from Tennessee. He had arrived almost unexpectedly. The results of the radio contacts were astounding. We never dreamed that we would have such experiences. When the set was turned on we had almost immediate contact. `AGFA AFFA SARAS IS LISTING 92° TO---. HERE IS THE PLANET OF SAGAFARIS CALLING SARAS. THIS IS THE PLANET OF SAGAFARIS CALLING SARAS. AGFA. VERY POOR CONDITION EXISTS. VVS VENIS VENIS. TFAS KS AR RAGIF KONT VA.' When Mr. R received the message that the planet Earth was listing 92° he turned to us and said, `I can't go for that.' However, it is obvious that they were not referring to our method of dividing a circle. The word Sagafaris was repeated several times each time it came in. By `Very poor condition exists,' they were referring to Earth. `SARAS PLESE SARAS PLESE V V VARY 92 HASTE.' Mr. R quickly turned to 92 meters on the receiver. This band is used for aircraft communication. It seemed a speech was being given in a large auditorium. The static was terrible and we could only hear a word now and then. The voice was loud and masterful and spoke perfect English. There was reference to Germany and America and that they could no longer appeal to reason, etc. That is about all we could understand of the message. This was our first and last contact by radiotelephony. Because we did not have good reception on 92 meters, Mr. R switched back to 405 kc. `OUR SECOND APPEASEMENT TO THE PEOPLE OF EARTH. SHORT WAVE BROADCAST. WE AWAIT, WE AWAIT. WHY BE IN SUCH --- WHEN HASTE IS ---. THIS MUST BE THE TIME. THIS MUST BE. HASTE, HASTE. WE CANNOT STAND BY AND SEE ANOTHER WASTE OF CREATION. THIS IS THE TIME. CANNOT FAIL. CANNOT FAIL. THIS CAN BE THE END OF ALL ON SARAS. THE LANDING WILL BE FOR SURE. SOON, SOON, HASTE. IS ALL IN READINESS' YOU MUST BE THERE SO MUCH DEPENDS 4 K-4. 40 MILES OFF K-4.' There was a long pause before transmission began again. We couldn't understand what they meant by K-4. We thought it might refer to a certain area on a map. Would this mean they had changed their mind in regard to the chosen landing site? Mr. R finally asked them what K-4 was. `SORRY NOW YOU MUST KNOW. K-4 SPACE SHIP OUTSIDE. THIS MUST BE A DANGER SIGN TO THE WONDER OF EARTH PEOPLES. THE LANDING WILL BE FOR SURE. WE DON'T CARE IF WE ARE SEEN BUT MUST BE ON THE WATCH, BE CAREFUL. WILL BE THERE IF NO OUTSIDE ---. FROM MASAR.' This does not seem to be a very long contact, but there may be many pauses before a complete message is received. The code itself is a wonderful thing to hear. The quality is very unusual and the speed of transmission is very fast. It was necessary for Mr. R to request that they transmit slower if possible. They then sent about three words at a time, but the speed itself was in no way reduced. Perhaps, because of the nature of their sending device, they cannot slow down the transmission noticeably. Always, just before a message would come in, a loud signal would be sent. This was used to alert Mr. R so that he could get back to his set before the code began. All of us had been trying to decide about Mr. R's father-in-law. The old gentleman thought we were going on a picnic the following day. Several of the women were helping Mrs. R in her kitchen prepare chicken, sandwiches, etc. Mrs. R didn't know what to do with her father. If she took him to the landing site, he might prevent the landing by his presence. Also, because of his extremely poor health he might suffer a heart attack if he saw a ship. On the other hand, if she left him at home, he would be alone and would think he wasn't wanted because he was old. She asked all of us what we thought she should do. We could reach no final decision in the matter. Suddenly, without Mr. R having to transmit a word, the code came in again. 'YOU SHOULD NOT.' We believed that this was an answer to what we had just been discussing. We thought if we did take him to the landing site we would tell him all about our radio contacts and what to expect beforehand. Evidently they didn't want us to say anything to him yet. But how did they know what we had been thinking or saying. Mr. R had transmitted nothing! Did these space intelligences receive our thoughts? If we had stopped to think we would have known they did, for they contacted us by means of the board in the same manner. It wasn't any more unusual to do so by radio. We wanted to clear it all up, so Mr. R transmitted: `What about elder B?' Then there was a long delay of about one hour and forty-five minutes. But the message they gave us was well worth waiting for. `WITH CARE HIS MIND --- SCARS --- STILL RESTING. TRYING AGAIN. SAW SAGAFARIS. JUPITER TRYING TO GET MIND CORRELATION OF FATHER. MIND SCARS PREVENT THEM FROM SEARCHING DEEP. CANNOT REACH FULL PROBE. MAN IS ELDERLY. TOO MUCH PROBING MAY FUSE MIND. JUPITER CANNOT REACH YOU. RELAY FROM MASAR. STILL TRYING TO REACH FULL PROBE.

OUR K-4 :MOVING AWAY FROM THE --- TO AWA AGFA AFFA REFIS LAQU. BETWEEN. ALL SOURCES MUST KEEP CLEAR OF ALL SPACE, THE SHIPS NUMBER 400 IN YOUR SKY. KADAR. 5555 KALAR.' The space intelligences couldn't have known that Elder B was Mr. R's father-in-law, yet they said they were trying to get a mind correlation of the father! Again, they had picked up our conversation and thoughts. Also, it seemed they had seen the space craft from Sagafaris. The old gentleman was asleep all this time inside the house. They knew this fact also. He suffers from excessive, frequent passage of urine and when Mrs. R went into his bedroom to check on him, she found the solution they said would be there! It was beyond belief ! How could beings as far away as Mars and Jupiter know what was going on inside a bedroom millions of miles away? Of course, there was a space craft nearby, but still many miles away. What powers these people must have! And what did they mean by, `Never fear the aged they can help again when they are brought to life" Did this mean that these space friends had the knowledge of life and death? Could they give us proof positive of life after death? These people had the answers to man's oldest questions! Mr. R missed much of these messages because of speed of transmission and the very nature of them. He was astounded, as we all were. He said, `If I ever doubted it, I don't now.' After a long pause again, another message came in. `MASAR TO FRIENDS OF SARAS. BE OF PEACE. MIND PROBE IS NOT INJURING HIS REACTION TO SHIP. HE WILL RECOVER IF ANY SERIOUS RESULTS DO OCCUR. HE WILL NOT IF HE --- IS ALL IN THE TRIBUNAL. THEY HAVE JUST MADE CONTACT WITH DEEP PROBE. CAN SEE NO HARM TO MIND.

NOT HURT KEEP HIM WARM. THIS CANNOT BE ENDING OF ALL. ENDING OF ALL. ENDING OF ALL. ENDING OF ALL. MASAR.' The radio contact had started about 7:30 p.m. and continued until late in the night. We had set up a small refracting telescope in Mr. R's backyard. While observing the Moon we were amazed to see what appeared to be a star just above its outer surface. But it was too brilliant to be a star and it moved in a clockwise direction with the Moon. We observed this object for several hours. Its movements were strange and we wondered if this was some gigantic powerhouse of a space ship relaying our messages from Masar and Jupiter. At last we would meet our space friends face-to-face. We could hardly believe that we were to be so honored. next headline, 28 September 1952. Unfortunately, our plans were poorly made. Our contacts had told us to be careful and plan wisely. None of us knew the exact landing site except Mr. R. We thought it would be safer if only one should decide and the others follow him. Before we drove off in two cars, we told Mr. R to stop at any fork in the road where he might turn off. This would avoid separation. He did just that. He turned off the main road, parked and waited for us. But, as our car neared that point, our view was cut off by the passing of two large logging trucks from the mountains. They were traveling very fast and there was much dust. We spent the rest of the day trying to find each other. Of course, we missed the appointment for 2:00 p.m. We finally found Mr. R and his car back in town about 6:00 p.m. The results of this unfortunate venture made us realize that we were not prepared for such an event. We felt that we had missed the chance of a lifetime ! All of our thinking at that time was directed at the landing contact as an end in itself. We have since realized that Universal service is indeed Eternal! The goals of today become the doorways to tomorrow's duty. We were all very hungry as Mr. R had the picnic food in his car. After eating we decided we should at least try for radio contact. We didn't think they would ever come in again. Why should they? We had failed them. Yet, we thought perhaps they would give us further instructions. A contact was made about 9:20 p.m. that evening. `RADIO IS DANGEROUS. YOU MUST NOT USE YOUR RADIO. YOU WILL BE CONTACTED BY A MAN IF OUR PLANS ARE TO BE CHANGED. YES, YES. HOPE THIS SPEED IS COPY. A MAN WILL CONTACT YOU WHEN ALL IS READY. DO NOT USE RADIO. MUST HURRY. OUR TIME IS SHORT. YES YES COPY.' We waited several minutes before the next code came in. `END. EU WE LOCATE YOU.' At 10:45 p.m. another message came in. `GREETINGS, YOU HAVE, OK. DO NOT EXPUNGE YOUR MINDS. YOU HAVE INHERENT MINDS. USE THEM. WAIT.' All of these last messages were of short duration with a long pause between each of them. At 11:20 p.m. we again made contact. `RADIOMAN HAS DEEP SECRET IN HIS MIND. WE WILL NOT REVEAL. WE ARE ALARMED.' Mr. R turned to us and said, `If they had known about this before, they would never have picked me for your radioman.' Immediately, they came in again. `BE OF PEACE.' Again we waited several minutes. `HAPPY. HAPPY. YOU RADIOMAN --- ARE INSTALLED IN THE RECORDS. GOOD. ATTENTION. SURPRISED MY BROTHER?' We had no idea what they meant by `deep secret.' Mr. and Mrs. R knew, however. Nevertheless, we have never been curious enough to ask them what was meant. What they were trying to convey by telling us, `installed in the records,' we do not know. We received a final message at 1:40 a.m. (29 September 1952). Although much of it was a series of numbers, we copy it here as it was given. `SR AGFA AWA PERI K-4 K-4 PERI AFFA AGFA ZO PERI. AGFA IS FINISHED. AGFA IS FINISHED. AGFA IS FINISHED. 110 25 AND 900 HA SO 52 AND 90 30 4 02262102 3 33 1500W 252 THE --- ON 1002 06000224 2257902072034.' Even though we had missed a landing with friends from other inhabited worlds, we still had a joyous time in Mr. R's ham shack. Anyone can imagine the suspense, the excitement that all of us felt during these radio contacts. There were usually eight or nine of us huddled together in the little shack waiting for information from our space friends! 30 September 1952 ( 11:00 p.m.) It was a wonderful evening to look at the heavens, so we had our small telescope set up in Mr. R's backyard again. A fourteen-year-old neighbor boy came over to join us in our astronomy lesson. We were looking at Jupiter with its bands and some of its twelve moons when this boy said that he had been having strange dreams lately. He said that a voice in his dream told him to tell no one about them, yet while he talked to us he had a strong impression to tell us. The moment he related their details we told him to go into the ham shack and write down everything he could remember. This young man's name is Ronnie Tucker and he is a student in Winslow, Arizona. His most amazing dream took place the same night that the mind-probe was relayed from Jupiter. After the voice had warned him not to tell anyone of what he saw, he awoke from the dream covered with perspiration and looked out of his window on the porch. He said there was a beam of light about one foot wide, and tubular in shape, misty white, coming from far out in space and going directly into that part of Mr. R's home where his father-in-law was sleeping! Did young Ronnie Tucker see the beam that was conducting the mind-probe on Elder B? He must have, for he knew nothing of our research and couldn't possibly have timed the dream with the Jupiter radio message. Mr. R wanted to tell the boy about our work, but was afraid to. He told him that there were certain things he should know, but it might take a week or so to decide in his case. The receiving set was turned on to 405 kc. while all this was going on. Immediately the following message came through and Mr. R hadn't transmitted a thing! `K4 K4 THIS IS K4. OK THE NEW ONE. K4 K4 I.' This was truly wonderful! Our space friends accepted this boy. Now we were certain that, if they wanted to, they could know every thought, action and deed of man on Earth. Ronnie told us that in another dream they told him that they wanted to save our planet. They said they would do all they could with our help. They told him they believed that no man should destroy another but that all men should live Universal Law and love everyone and live in peace, working together. They assured him that life was eternal. At 6.30 p.m. another board contact was made. `This in Ankar-22 of Jupiter speaking. Jupiter is the mental research centre of this Solar System. We will continue to help. On your Earth there are magnetic anomalies. Your scientist wonder why meteorites fall in a pattern and in certain locations over the world. They also wonder why great civilizations are found where meteorites are found. The answer is simple. The anomalies attract the meteorites, and these same anomalies amplify Universal influx from outer space. Therefore, you will find better living conditions, finer art and music and so on in the same place you find the meteorites.' Our space friends had told us that we would be contacted by a man when all was ready. This man undoubtedly would be an inhabitant of another planet. We were most excited over this possibility. During the month of September 1952, saucers were being seen everywhere by competent observers. The entire world was becoming sky conscious. During the week of 5 October a cousin of Mr. R's was visiting him in Winslow. This man knew nothing of our research and had never mentioned saucers to Mr. R before. One night the two men were in the radio shack when they suddenly heard a strange low hum and a buzzing sound. Mr. R asked his cousin to go outside and see what it was. `Come here quickly,' his cousin called. Mr. R arrived too late to see a strange, orange-colored, oval-shaped object hovering directly above his antenna. He said, `What do you think it was?' His cousin replied, 'That was a flying saucer.' At once they made an attempt to establish radio contact, but it was unsuccessful. On 12 October at 1:00 p.m. an unusual thing happened. We make mention of it here because so many other people, in dealing with saucer phenomena, have noticed the same thing. We were in Winslow at Al's house, when suddenly we smelled a very powerful odor. It was similar to burning metal in acid. We could not locate its source, and it seemed to be only in the house. On 21 October at 8:10 p.m., a small private plane crashed and burned at Winslow, Arizona. This plane was on a mercy flight to a Phoenix hospital with a fourteen-months-old polio victim. All four passengers were instantly killed. One of the workers at the Winslow Timber Company was working late, and saw the plane take off and minutes later burst into flames. He told the CAA investigators that immediately after the crash, and before the ambulance and fire truck had arrived, an orange streak sped across the sky and apparently landed by the stricken plane. We know that the saucers do not harm anyone. Perhaps they knew of the child and tried to help. Of course, we do not know just what did take place. We were now trying to separate our own thoughts from those of the space intelligences. We used the board rarely, for we felt it might be hindering our progress in the development of more direct telepathic contact. 1 November 1952 (6:3o p.m.) 'Artok of Pluto speaking. Have no fright, all is right. Our ships are silver lights; lights of beauty; lights of duty.' 'Ankar-22. Please concentrate, as we are going to go a step ahead in our telepathic work. One of you will receive a message from our brother, Ponnar. Your planet is called Saras because of the repetition of cataclysms that have visited you. Only technical advance has been made on Saras, and this is the wrong kind of achievement for you are now engulfed in darkness that has no equal.' `Regga speaking. Men of Saras have sought only the ways of the flesh. They have a form of spirituality, but deny the power and majesty of the Creator. The so-called educated man is a fool, the nations are bathed in the blood of myriads of young men, women and children. What will Saras do with her new powers' You are as children with a dangerous toy. We are out in the vastness, and we watch your industries where greed is born; your capitals where wars are born; your laboratories where discoveries are made. We see the birth cradle and we see the early death shroud. There is something far more beautiful, more satisfying, than you have attained. We have been observing you for a long time now. We are your brothers. Have we not shown this to be true over and over again? If there is violence, it will be of your making, not ours! We know that among you there are those who desire and seek the love and knowledge which alone makes man free. We have tasted of it, and it is good, it is sweet. Look up, people of Saras. Be of one mind and purpose. We are not unattainable, for we are here with you! We wait, we watch, we listen!' Many other messages were received by members of our group by direct telepathic contact, which we never would have received had we not become as one mind. It took weeks of meditation and concentration, holding self down, and allowing ourselves to become attuned to the influx from the Universe. The Universe has much to offer us if we but stop our senseless wars, and exploitation of our brothers, and return once more to a true realization of Creation. Wonderful and almost unbelievable things await us if we but awaken and arise to meet those who are now awakening throughout the world. next headline, 20 November 1952. Mr. and Mrs. Williamson with Mr. and Mrs. Bailey were in company with three other people in the desert near Desert Centre, California, when a cigar-shaped mother ship was observed by all present and a personal contact was made with one of the occupants of a scout-type saucer. [Flying Saucers Have Landed by Desmond Leslie and George Adamski.] Many things happened during December 1952 and January, February 1953. Saucer sightings increased and Nature went on a rampage. We need not go into that here for the newspapers and radio broadcasts covered it thoroughly. However, there were many sightings of great importance that were never heard of by the man in the street. On 21 December 1952, Mr. R and five other residents of Arizona, observed a large, cigar-shaped mother-craft over the city. They watched it from 5:00 p.m. until dark. Two smaller saucers were seen to enter the larger craft and a few minutes later one left the mother-ship. This was observed through field-glasses. On 3 February 1953, Mr. and Mrs. Williamson were coming home from town in Prescott, Arizona, when they observed two saucers come within a few feet of the ground. These craft were close enough so that the general outline and the light on top could be observed. There was absolutely no sound. About 10:00 p.m. the same night Mr. Williamson saw another saucer with an amber light go directly over his house. It was very low. Since then many of these space craft have been seen in Northern Arizona and elsewhere. Many people are afraid to tell about what they have seen. 15 February 1953( 11:25 p.m.) We were at Mr. R's for a short conference. We were trying to decided what we should do about this report you are now reading. How should it be written? Should all of the facts be given to the public? We did know that we should continue to be of one mind and then carefully make our plans. We knew, also, that our space friends would want the truth given. Nothing else would do! Mr. R had the radio set turned on, as he always does when he is in the radio shack. One never knows when a signal might come in from the space craft intelligences. He had transmitted nothing. In fact, he doesn't need to transmit any more. They will answer any and all problems they feel important by coming in on the receiver if it is on. Mr. R also wondered if V (•••-) wasn't really EU (• ••-)? Suddenly a radio code signal just seemed to slide in on 405 kc. At first, Mr. R couldn't make any sense out of the dot and dash system. Finally one word stood out. It was: 'CENTURAS.' We do not know what it could mean except it closely resembles the name of a constellation. Then a very understandable message came through. `OK THIS TIME IS FOR YOU TO DECIDE. AR. The message ended at 12:05 a.m., 16 February I953. They would not decide for us on this report. It was up to us! So, we have set it down exactly as it happened. It is unfortunate that some of the messages were not understandable. Affa was on a ship called K-5, and he was apparently going to give us the name of his own planet and the ship's origin. We know that all radios in the world are not silent. Many of them are now receiving information from our brothers in the sky! We hope that this report will awaken interest amongst others, and that they will honestly attempt contact with our visitors from space. They have come a long way to help us. Let us extend to them the hand of friendship and welcome ! next headline, 7 th part, The Man in the Moon. Men of other worlds have beaten us to our own satellite, and have established bases there. This is the reason why we have seen strange lights and blinkings on the moon for many years now. These have never been adequately explained. These lights on the Moon have been reported by reputable astronomers over a long period of time. The following has been observed: Star-like lights in the Crater Aristarchus; a pyramid in the open space of Linne; an `X' visible in the Crater Eratosthenes; a strange symbol visible in the Crater Plinus; the letter Gamma in the Crater Littrow; a luminous cable drawn across the Crater Eudoxus in the Northwest Quadrant of the Moon; strange happenings in the Crater Proclus; and in the Crater Picard. Many strange illuminations have been sighted in the Northwest Quarter of Quadrant of the Moon. At a distance, the space craft do look like stars. The reason: they operate in a magnetic field just as all celestial bodies do! Flow long they have been on the Moon we do not know, but we can be certain that they have used it as a base ever since they began coming to Earth. We have not had telescopes very long, but as soon as this instrument was utilized we saw strange things on our satellite! The `man in the moon' made us laugh once, but he's an actuality after all! For several months now, we have been receiving letters from all over the United States, Canada, Mexico, England and other countries. Many of these have been from scientific groups and individuals. Several well-known astronomers have told us in writing that they firmly believe the saucer phenomena to be interplanetary in origin. We have these letters on file. next headline,part 8, Saucers Still Speaking. Many groups are now experimenting in radio, trying to contact the saucers. Some of these groups have had success. Others have received nothing and others have not received anything from the saucers themselves over their radio receivers, but saucer sightings have coincided with their transmissions. We have had more personal contact recently with the saucers, but this is of such a nature that we cannot put it into print just now. One group, working with radio communication in Ohio has had success in contacting the discs. We have been in touch with them by letter. A gentleman in Virginia writes the following; 'You asked me to describe the strange speech that came over my FM radio set. My wife and I heard it the first time, but a whole crowd of us heard it the last time, and special effort was made to get some intelligible word out of the conversation which seemed to be between a man and a woman. The first time I found the signal at 98 mc. on 15 April 1952. It was repeated the next day at the same time: 4:15 to 5:25 p.m. EST. The signal was very powerful, as indicated by the electric eye, but the voices were low in volume, as if our radio receivers were not precisely designed for the type of modulation being used. The sounds were of even tone like chanting, as if two trumpets were speaking, one low pitch, and the other high pitch, like a man and a woman. 'But the sounds were divided into words and sentences, one, then the other speaking. There wasn't a single word in English. On 16 April 1952 I photographed a huge cloud circle in the sky of this region. It was not caused by jet vapor trails. That same night the enormous vapor trails over Alaska caused the military alert, and the communication line between Alaska and the United States went dead. Also that same day, astronomers observed a double cloud on Mars that rose nearly 100 miles above the surface of the planet. Nothing like it has ever been seen before! `The next radio voice came on 16 March 1953. It was the same chanting speech, but one of our listeners said he heard the word `Washington.' This was the only understandable word. Of course, this word would be the same no matter where used. I think this was on 103 mc. Unfortunately, I have mislaid my notes. It was also in the evening. I made some tests this time, and found the signal to come from a certain direction, straight to the radio, not through the aerial. When I stood or placed my hand in a certain place, the signal would dim and static would come in. Evidently this message just happened to affect the F M set on that particular frequency.' On 29 January 1950 in Spain, several radio owners reported strange speech reception while saucers were being observed flying over the country. This was just about a month before the Great Saucer Armada arrival over Farmington, New Mexico. Other saucer sightings were seen at this time. It will be remembered that most of our own communication was done in the months when saucers were being seen everywhere. In Iowa, there is a very fine group working with radio. It includes prominent professional men and several radio operators. On 18 March 1953 (this almost came on the 16 March 1953 date of the Virginia observations) the following happened to one of the members of this group. `I was driving from---, Iowa westward. It was about 12:45 a.m. I noticed that on 550 kc. on the radio a very strong code sending was going on. It was a very foggy night and raining. The code became very loud and then would fade away at intervals. I stopped at the top of several high hills to see if I could see anything, but no luck. Finally at one point the fog thinned out and I saw a huge round glow coming down through the fog towards me. It became larger and larger with a bluish-purple color. Suddenly the fog broke away and to the east of the road I was standing on there shone a bright red light, then it turned to white, then back to red again. After changing several times, the fog closed in again and the light appeared as the purplish glow once more. I felt I was being watched! I drove on to ---, Iowa after the fog became thicker. The code sending continued and seemed to follow me all the way to town. I dug my partner out of bed at 2:30 a.m. and at his house among large trees the purplish glow came down through the fog again as he and his wife watched. The code signals kept coming in very strong for an hour, finally faded some, so we went to bed at 4:00 a.m. still able to hear the signals, however.' Several times, immediately after this group would try radio communications, members would sight flying saucers over their town. And since they have been in contact via radio many sightings have been made in that part of Iowa. One time in their messages there was mention of a Bible passage and another time they received: 'WE FIND FEW NOW READY!' This speaks for itself. Some groups have proven the telepathy part of the radio experiment by receiving messages pertaining to something they had never transmitted to the discs. Sightings are still being made all over the world, but there seems to be a lull at this time compared with sightings made in the Fall of other years when usually there is a great deal of activity. However, the saucers are still here and have very important plans for Earth. There will be more catastrophe in the future. The Ionian Island disaster by earthquake off Greece recently is very significant. Our fault lines are under great stress and are giving at certain points. Those Islands are directly over the area where three main, very large fault lines converge! Also, about that time an enormous exploding light was viewed in Denmark. Yes, the Saucers Are Still Speaking! Let's listen to what they have to say! (This section added 7 September  next headline, part 9,Epilogue, (to original edition). `Yet so shall it be; these fruitless strifes, these ruinous wars shall pass away, and the Most Great Peace shall come.'--Baha'u'llah. As we complete this report, we watch the newspaper headlines and listen to the newscasts with great interest.

The predictions made by our friendly communicators are coming true daily. They have told us that we would see more and more of them in the near future. They said they could not stand by and see another waste. Many of the people of Earth shall see them and no longer doubt who or what they are. They come as our friends to aid us in a dark hour on this planet. Soon, we believe, they may even land in great numbers. But this is not an invasion of our world. Billions of Earths were created for mankind. They need not take any one of them by aggressive action. Let us look up and watch our skies, for our atomic blasts have alerted the Universe, and the flying saucers are here to stay! There are those who hope they will go away, but they never will! For centuries scientists have set up theories which are guesses based on carefully observed facts. When a few of these scientists want to leave the Desert of Past Mistakes and Guesses, they are held back by the Giant known as Orthodox Science. This Giant has many followers, who claim him to be All Perfection. In the fifteenth century his mighty voice rang out to men like Columbus, `Thou shalt not believe the Earth is round!' Today he stands there still, shouting, `Thou shalt not see nor believe in flying saucers.' There are many well-known scientists today who are devoted slaves of this Giant. They are presumably dedicated to bringing the light to all mankind, yet they hold aloft their own puny torch, hoping someone will carry it on. But its light is dim and flickering. Soon a greater light shall take its place. While the Giant gleefully watches in the darkness, others slip past him into a new day of greater knowledge. The renowned astrophysicist, Dr. Donald H. Menzel of Harvard Observatory, has written a book that is supposed to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth about flying saucers. Other scientists have said his laboratory experiments cannot be duplicated in nature. University students who flock to his lectures conic away very disappointed. They say, `We couldn't help but feel that Dr. Menzel was covering up and leaving something out. It's that "something" that has us worried!' While Menzel was playing with his car headlights, another world-famous astronomer, Dr. Clyde Tombaugh, discoverer of the planet Pluto, was seeing a space ship! In the sky over Las Cruces, New Mexico, in the summer of 1948, whizzing silently overhead from south to north, was an oval-shaped object. It had about a dozen windows which were clearly visible at the front and along the side. The rear trailed off into a shapeless luminescence. It was traveling too fast for a plane and too slow for a meteor. Many have said that no astronomer of repute has reported seeing unidentified aerial phenomena. However, as we can see from Dr. Tombaugh's report, they are wrong in their statements. Other so-called authorities were seeing swarms of giant locusts crossing the moon. The same authorities claimed the moon was without atmosphere! Locusts in a vacuum! While they were seeing reflected light on floating dandelion seeds; spiders riding gossamer wisps in the sun's eye; `flitting flies'; and extra-terrestrial flying barnyards; other scientists with vision, who are also men of science, were seeing the saucers as they really are--spacecraft! Even stodgy Harper's Magazine succumbed to commercialism. They enticed their readers into buying a recent issue by placing the title, `Little Men and Flying Saucers,' on the cover page. The article, by Dr. Loren C. Eiseley, professor of anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania drags the reader through tales of mermaids, griffins, salamandrine beasts of the coal swamps, carnival freaks, and Darwinism. Very little, if anything, is said about the flying saucers. For a man who is presumably a trained observer, this is indeed a poor observation. He tries to bring in material that has no bearing on the saucer phenomena in order to disprove it. Why? Because he and his cohort, the Giant, have said. `Thou shalt not!' He tells us that it is just conceivable that there may be nowhere in space a mind superior to our own! According to him the human ego likes to believe that other worlds are inhabited. And since he is so fortunate in knowing what the truth is, he tells us that man is a solitary and peculiar development on the planet Earth! While others are going forward he is still back in the middle of the desert with Charles Darwin. Is it egotistical to believe that men are to be found everywhere in the Universe? Or is it egotistical to believe that only the Earth is inhabited--thus making the Earth unique, Does man want to be alone on this globe with his many wars, crimes and waste? If he contemplates other inhabited worlds for a moment he sees visions of greater Powers that he may have to answer to. Some scientists claim that the statistical probability of the life on this planet being reduplicated on another planet is so small as to be meaningless. Yet, the law of averages tells us differently! Dr. Harold C. Urey, Nobel prize-winning atomic scientist, tells us that one quadrillion worlds may originate and sustain life. If we think in terms of Infinity there must be many, many more also. Certain authorities accept the idea that cellular life may exist out yonder in the dark. But high or low in nature, they do not believe it will wear the shape of man. These same men tell us we are the only thinking mammals on the planet, perhaps the only thinking animals in the entire sidereal Universe. My, my, the burden of consciousness has certainly grown heavy upon us, and it is thus we torture ourselves! These men are all alone in the Creation with their super-brains ! Anyone really studying and knowing animal life would never say that we are the only thinking mammals on the planet. Getting back to Harper's contribution to saucer research again, we find the article tells us that the describers of two-foot men forget that a normal human brain cannot function with a capacity, at the very minimum, of less than about 900 cubic centimeters of capacity. We say that the author of this article has forgotten it is a relative matter! He mentions `meteors whispering greenly overhead.' There are scientists today who would tell him that meteors are never green! We are told that nowhere in all space or on a thousand worlds will there be men to share our loneliness. So, there may be boneless, watery, pulpy masses, but of men elsewhere, and beyond, there will be none for ever! The great scientists of Columbus' time told him that horrible monsters would swallow him and his little ships. Others are telling us the same thing today--that there may be monsters in outer space, but no men! Remember, Columbus found only more men--so will we! Scientists who really want to leave this dry desert will do just that. All others can stay behind tortured by their terrific burden of a super-brain and their loneliness. We are told that Dr. Eiseley has been wandering around getting himself covered with sand burrs and other prickly seeds, all of this activity being pertinent to the writings of a book. The prickly seeds must have gotten in his eyes, for if they had been airborne he might have seen a flying saucer. He claims he would rather have lunch with a purple polyp than with a man from Mars. Perhaps he will get his wish! There is still another type of Giant worshipper that uses the cloak of spirituality and religion. Orthodox science or orthodox religion is the same thing. They are both demanding and dogmatic. This type of man is usually uneducated, for if he were educated he would probably be a super-scientist. Instead, he has no choice but to be a super-religionist. A man-made evangelist bringing hellfire and damnation to all sinners. This type is egotistical and dogmatic. One of these is Mr. William C. Lamb of Wyoming. He claims he has photographs of God and the Holy City. He quotes reams of Scripture to prove his own opinions. Yet, he believes that atomic energy was a gift of God to his `angelic Earth children' so that they might blow up all the devils and imps, sending them to everlasting fire and brimstone. This type does not realize that God cannot be photographed. (Even their Bible will tell them so.) The Creator is the unmeasured and timeless one! We do not believe that a loving God would give man a gift whereby he could destroy innocent women and children in a horrible holocaust! Our Mr. Lamb has astronomical photographs of the Orion Nebula. (Interpreted by him, of course.) God's Throne is supposed to be there. He is telling us that the Creator is smaller and more insignificant than His own Creation! He says the Omnipotence and Omniscience of Deity is a secret that no man is able to fathom, yet he claims to know more about the flying saucers than anyone else. He is contradictory, but fortunately his type is easily discerned. There isn't enough intelligence amongst them to dupe us with lengthy scientific language. To all of this, we say what Charles Fort said, `The trash that is clogging an epoch must be cleared away!' We see a vision of the future. A world without a slave, man at last free, where our loyalty is not to something called mine, but to all humanity, to the ideal of a higher Universal civilization which will spew out war forever as the vilest of all human defilements. There will be no imaginary boundary lines of nationality, race, color or creed. The Earth will be swept clean of these false walls that for centuries have shut man from man, nation from nation, and have filled the Earth with lamentation and tears, with rivalry and hate, cruelty and oppression, injustice and greed, selfishness and pride, bloodshed, battlefields, and death. It will be a new world where work and worth go hand in hand, where men's lips are rich with love and truth. A race will exist without disease of flesh or brain, for health will come to all as a divine heritage. And above it all will be the Eternal Father. Those who cling to the old methods and beliefs will go down with the old order. This is the uncovering period. Soon man will feel deeply that he is indeed his brother's keeper! Our only remedy for saving ourselves is to turn from hate and national enmity to love and a realization of the Fatherhood of God, the Motherhood of Nature, and the Brotherhood of Man. next headline, is part 10. Appendix. We would like to let you know what some of the world's experts are saying. Brig. Gen. Ernest Moore, former Chief, Air Force Intelligence: `First off, the Russians have nothing to do with these so-called "saucers"; I'll swear to that on a stack of Bibles, if you like. Second, we don't have any secret new types of aircraft that could have started all this commotion.' The theory that the saucers were hostile aircraft was carefully studied and rejected. As one scientist said, `The performance of these "saucers" not only surpass the development of present science but the development of present fiction-science writers.' As of 25 August 1952, Captain Ruppelt, Air Force, said more competent observers than ever before have been reporting saucers. The Captain, who started as a one-man agency, now has eight fulltime assistants. The Air Force is buying a hundred special cameras, which it hopes will help determine what the objects are made of, and it is considering buying several photographic telescopes of a new type, costing as much as five thousand dollars a piece, with which a continuous photographic record can be made nightly of the sky over the whole hemisphere. After several years and nearly two thousand reported sightings of a serious nature, there is no discussion in Air Force circles of abandoning the pursuit of the elusive saucers. Twenty-five per cent of the observers interrogated by the Aerial Phenomena Officer in the last few years have been military pilots. Eight per cent have been commercial pilots, some with as much as twenty years' experience in the air, and at one stage in the current phase of the investigation, even a few physicists at Los Alamos, New Mexico, men who make a fetish of objectivity, were interviewed after they reported having seen puzzling lights hovering above their atomic energy laboratories. On 21 July 1952, Senior Air Traffic Controller for the Civil Aeronautics Administration at the National Airport's Air Route Traffic Control Centre, in Washington, DC, informed the Air Force, and the public that early that morning his radarscope had picked up ten unidentifiable objects flying over various parts of the capital, including the prohibited area around the White House. Controller Harry G. Barnes said, `There is no other conclusion I can reach but that for six hours on the morning of the twentieth of July there were at least ten unidentifiable objects moving above Washington. They were not ordinary aircraft. Nor, in my opinion, could any natural phenomena account for these spots on our radar. Neither shooting stars, electrical disturbances, nor clouds could, either. Exactly what they are, I don't know. Now you know as much about them as I do. And your guess is as good as mine.' On 6 August 1952, an Army physicist at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, created an effect similar to flying saucers in his laboratory by introducing molecules of ionized air into a partial vacuum in a bell jar, and three days later an internationally known authority on atmospheric conditions said of the physicist's experiment, `I know of no conditions of the Earth's atmosphere, high or low, which would duplicate those needed to make the laboratory models.' Dr. Fitts and other Project Saucer scientists, said, `Some of the sightings might be blamed on muscae volitantes (flitting flies), the medical term for small solid particles that float about in the field of the eye, casting a shadow on the retina and moving as the eye moves.' Dr. George Valley, a nuclear physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; staff members of the research firm of Hand Corporation; an assortment of physicists and aerodynamicists who specialize in the study of the stratosphere and the space beyond it; and the electronics experts attached to the Cambridge Field Station were all searching for physical rather than psychological explanations, and some fairly strange theories occurred to them--the possibility that extra-terrestrial animals were flying into our atmosphere, for example. However, no data turned up to support this arresting idea! The astronomers concluded that the atmosphere of Venus was composed largely of carbon dioxide and immense, opaque clouds of formaldehyde droplets, and this precluded the practice of astronomy, and hence the concept of a Universe and the idea of space ships. We feel that perhaps the people of Venus would develop better telescopes than we because of the above conditions, and would therefore have finer equipment than we for viewing the heavens. That cloud layer might excite their curiosity to find out what was beyond it! There are other theories about Venus, however. John Robinson, in The Universe We Live In, tells us that the dust-bowl theory is based on the spectroscopic examination of the upper atmosphere of Venus which reveals no water vapor and quantities of carbon monoxide at that level. He points out that seventy miles above the surface of the Earth the atmosphere contains no oxygen or water vapor at all, and that the atmosphere is almost 100 per cent hydrogen, an entirely unbreathable and highly inflammable gas. The Earth nevertheless teems with life despite the fact that there is no oxygen or water vapor in the outer four hundred miles of its atmosphere. All oxygen, water vapor and hence life, exist only within a few miles of the surface. This man is not afraid to come to grips with the most modern theories and he searchingly analyzes them. Months ago our space friends told us that the moon had an atmosphere. The other day, Dr. Harlow Shapley, astronomer at Harvard College Observatory, announced that the moon does indeed, have an atmosphere! Fred Hoyle, British astronomer, says, `I think that all our present guesses are likely to prove but a very pale shadow of the real thing.' Dr. Lincoln La Paz, University of New Mexico, claims that the saucers are not meteors, because they do not look like meteors. He says that fireballs are not shooting stars or meteorites, because meteorites glow for only short periods and invariably make loud noises, while the fireballs and saucers are silent. These objects, he says, can reverse direction and cruise back and forth, travel at high speeds in wide, sweeping circles, are spherical or disc-shaped, give off a steady yellow light for the most part, and travel at extremely high altitudes. Also, meteors are never green in color. The saucers are not balloons. Mr. J. J. C. Kaliszewski, a supervisor of balloon manufacture, says, `The saucers are strange, terrifically fast. They have a peculiar glow. One seemed to have a halo around it, with a dark under-surface. We see no vapor trail.' Dr. Albert Einstein on 23 July 1952, said, `Those people have seen something. What it is I do not know and I am not curious to know.' Father Francis J. Connell, C.Sc.R., dean of the Catholic University's School of Sacred Theology said, `It is well for Catholics to know that the principles of their faith are entirely reconcilable with even the most astounding possibilities regarding life on other planets... Theologians have never dared to limit the omnipotence of God to the creation of the world we know.' He added, `If these supposed rational beings should possess the immortality of body once enjoyed by Adam and Eve, it would be foolish for our superjet or rocket pilots to try to shoot them. They would be unkillable.' Anatol J. Schneider, seismologist, stated on 10 June 1946, in San Francisco, that there was great danger of cracking the Earth's surface with atomic bombing by the danger of climate changes occurring throughout the world. It was the underwater bombing that was to be the most feared. The hands of the clock on the cover of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists now stand at three minutes to midnight. When the Bulletin began, the cover pictured a clock with the hands at eight minutes to midnight. The hands are moving up! The hands reflect the feeling of many scientists that since 1945 the world has moved closer to the catastrophe of atomic warfare--that it has become increasingly urgent that we find a solution to the problem of the peaceful utilization of the work of science for the benefit of all mankind. The world is now close to the Midnight Hour! and also headline, 11. Mr. R's Secret. This chapter is dedicated to the memory of the young radioman, who in 1952 made contact with intelligences from outer space via radiotelegraphy and radiotelephony. Not wishing to disclose his identity, I called him simply: Mr. R (for `radio'). In the years ahead of us, when history speaks of the turbulent Twentieth Century on Earth, and when all war, disease, greed and selfishness have become nebulous things of ancient legend, Mr. R will be remembered as a pioneer of the days when Earthman learned that he was not alone in the Universe. Mr. R was the first radio operator to become a channel between the small planet we call home and the vastness of interstellar space. He became a bridge for men of goodwill throughout the Father's limitless realm. Now his key is silent... for he has graduated to another dimension of time and space. He is now free of the restrictions of Earth, free to communicate forever with worlds without number. We say, Good-bye, for just a little while, Mr. R... Light ... Love... Peace... as you travel the Great Path up to the stars! After the highly successful radio experiments of 1952-53, our group decided to write a book on our experiences. We realized that the information we had received was of the greatest importance to all mankind. We asked Mr. R if he cared to write a book about his radio contacts with Outer Space, but he said that he was not interested in making his experiments known publicly, but he did not object if others wrote about them. At that time we had him sign an affidavit, subscribed and sworn to before Genevieve D. Scott, Notary Public, Winslow, Arizona, on the 7th day of March 1953. While he was willing to sign the affidavit, he also told us that he didn't want his name or call letters (since he was a licensed ham radio operator) used in any way whatsoever. This was a great disappointment to us, because we felt that without such information any book on the results of the experiments would fall far short of that which we desired for it. The book would lack the authority that we wanted and needed. However, he was a good friend and we told him we would never disclose his name. We are doing so now in this edition since Mr. R passed away on 23 April 1955, with what was said to be a heart condition and `other contributing factors.' The Frontispiece of this book contains the original affidavit revealing the names of Mr. R, licensed commercial and amateur radio operator, and his wife, Mrs. R, plus the name of the Arizona city in which they made their home. Mr. R was Lyman H. Streeter, radio operator for the Santa Fe Railroad. His amateur call letters were : W70JQ. He lived at 423 East Maple Street in Winslow, Arizona. Lyman had good reasons for not wanting his identity known. First of all, he had never used his call letters during his communication with the space intelligences and he never logged any of his receptions. If these facts were made known, he knew he would lose his license, and this was the very last thing he wanted, for to him radio was his very life. Also, he knew that even if he had complied fully with the regulations of the Federal Communications Commission, his license would still be taken away, for no operator is permitted to make contact with an unlicensed operator and the UFOs aren't licensed with the FCC! Lyman Streeter's first contact with intelligence from outer space took place the evening of 22 August 1952. He was a good radio operator holding both a commercial and a ham or amateur license. Lyman was very skeptical of the existence of flying saucers let alone the possibility of communicating with such objects by radio. However, he was willing to attempt contact. Friday evening 22 August 1952, Lyman saw what he thought was a very small meteor display over Winslow. Then he observed what appeared to be a very bright light traveling at a high altitude in the sky directly above him. He turned on his receiver in his ham shack to 400 kc., and immediately, many strange signals were heard but not identified. Later on, the same evening, the Streeters and other witnesses heard strange, clear code signals coming to them as they sat in the main house. Lyman had his ham shack on the back of their property, and he had no transmitting or receiving equipment whatsoever in the main house. At first, everyone thought the signals were coming from the radio shack in the back yard, but when they went to check, there was absolutely nothing to be heard there... in fact, the equipment wasn't even turned on. After they came back to the main house the mysterious code was heard again. It seemed to be coming from the very air itself. Since that memorable evening in 1952, many others have reported experiencing exactly the same thing. About 2:00 a.m., 23 August 1952, code signals were again received. Lyman said it sounded as though two people were talking back and forth to each other, using code... but a code unfamiliar to him. It was definitely not standard International Morse Code. The code was coming over his receiver in loud, clear tones. Suddenly, he wrote down a word or two on his note pad; ZO and AFFA. Later we learned that a superior of Lyman Streeter's in the radio work of the Santa Fe Railroad, a man high up in radio circles, had told him that he also had received strange signals at various times during his radio experiments and that he definitely believed such signals to be from space intelligences. However, he had been evasive when Lyman asked for further information and had seemed to want to discourage him in his own experiments. Why? One day, this superior called Lyman and told him that Lowell Observatory on Mars Hill in Flagstaff, Arizona had observed UFOs on Friday 22 August 1952. Exactly the same day that Streeter received his first radio signals from space intelligences! This superior also said that a staff member at Lowell Observatory had reported to him earlier that on 22 August 1952, they would focus their large telescope for terrestrial observation over Winslow. But the man had not said what they were going to look for or why. Also, no mention had been made of the source of the information that caused this observation to be made in the first place. Later, Lyman Streeter had to go to Mars Hill overlooking Flagstaff, where he was making a survey for the Santa Fe Railroad in connection with new radio equipment being installed on the top of Mt. Elden. In an area away from the big observatory, he saw a strange small building surrounded by a high wire fence. Inside the enclosed area he saw two gigantic dogs, obviously watchdogs. Navy men were moving various types of electronic equipment in and out of the little building, which looked new and recently painted. He wondered what such equipment was doing on Mars Hill. He was informed that if the new equipment belonging to the railroad being installed on Mt. Elden interfered with the government work on Mars Hill, then it would have to be placed elsewhere. Several years later we learned that the government had placed electronic equipment at Lowell Observatory to assist in the tracking of two artificial satellites or space stations that were known to be circling the Earth at four hundred and at six hundred miles out in space. In August 1954, the magazine Aviation Week reported that the two objects were meteors, and insisted that Dr. Lincoln La Paz of the University of New Mexico had helped in the identification of them as natural rather than man-made objects. Dr. La Paz attacked the magazine's reference to him, but acknowledged the search for nearby satellites. He also said: `The report is false in every particular insofar as reference to me is concerned.' Dr. La Paz and Dr. Clyde Tombaugh, discoverer of the planet Pluto, both worked on the Government project at Lowell Observatory, and both of these men are fully aware that the objects tracked by electronic equipment are not natural, and because of their actions in the heavens could only be artificial... constructed by other intelligent beings. When Sir Edward Appleton, famous British radio physicist, said 'These two unknown objects are discoveries of great astronomical Interest'... he didn't know the half of it. Or did he? It is very likely that Sir Edward knew what La Paz and Tombaugh knew, and the same thing that the United States Government knew when it had the Navy set up an experimental station on Mars Hill. Lyman Streeter stumbled into that secret project in 1952 when he was at Lowell Observatory. Other messages were received, over a period of several months, by Lyman Streeter in his ham shack at the back of the lot at 423 East Maple Street. He had been very skeptical at first. However, after he saw discs in the sky where his radio messages told him to look, discs over his own radio antenna, and after messages were received telling about things which no one but he could have known, and finally, messages coming over the receiver that were answers to questions that had never been transmitted to the intelligences in the usual manner, Streeter's attitude changed. They had either picked up verbal statements made in the ham shack by telepathy and/or by some kind of recording discs. Soon, our Mr. R had his proof. I remember his facial expression on many occasions; he appeared just too bewildered to even think. Lyman usually transmitted on 40 meters and received on 405 kc. On one occasion he received via radiotelephone (voice) on 92 meters. However, we are certain that frequency has nothing whatsoever to do with it. Space intelligences have stated many times that they can make anything act as a receiver from radio equipment to the human brain. At first, Streeter told us that he never had had any interest in UFOs before we contacted him to attempt communication with them. However, upon questioning, he later admitted that he had become very much interested in the possibility of Interstellar Communication in 1950 after he read an article on this subject in QST, one of the amateur ham radio magazines. He said that he had attempted some sort of contact at that time on a high frequency and a short wave length. However, the experiment was a failure and he gave it up. There was always something strange overshadowing the life of Mr. R that I find impossible to describe in words. The only clue I might have would be a radio message from the UFOs we received during the evening of 28 September 1952. At 11:20 p.m. the following message came through the receiver: `Radioman has deep secret in his mind. We will not reveal. We are alarmed.' Streeter turned to the rest of us in the ham shack and said, `If they (the UFOs) had known about this before, they would never have picked me for your radioman.' Immediately, code came through the receiver again : `Be of peace!' We waited for several minutes without talking until more code started. `Happy, happy! You, Radioman Kanet are installed in the records. Good! Attention! Surprised, my brother?' What was meant by `deep secret'? Evidently Lyman and his wife knew for they looked at each other in a strange way and she came over to sit beside him and hold his hand. Lyman seemed very concerned over this message. None of us was impolite enough to ask the Streeters what it all meant, so we said nothing. Anyway, the space intelligences didn't stay alarmed for long for they spoke of Streeter being `installed in the records' and called him by another name: Radioman Kanet! This name was formerly left out of the message because we felt it was something that belonged to Streeter alone and could be of no interest to the public. However, it is well to mention it now for it might be a clue for which we are looking. I remember how, one evening, Streeter told us, rather reluctantly, it seemed, that after attempting contact in 1950 he had appeared one day at work acting in a very strange manner. He went about his assigned radio tasks in the normal way, but his fellow workers noticed he wouldn't answer them when they spoke to him and behaved as if he were in a trance of some kind. His wife was called, and he was taken home. For eight days he was in this unusual `zombie' condition. He said nothing to anyone during that period. Later, when he regained a state of normalcy, he admitted he couldn't remember a thing that had transpired during those eight days of amnesia. After the contacts started on 22 August 1952, Streeter suddenly remembered what had happened several years previously (during the memory lapse). He told us that he apparently had left his earthly body (that would account for the zombie condition... the physical body had gone about its usual tasks at work under the direction of the animal mind, while the entity had been elsewhere) and awoke in a beautiful, large hall where many people were gathering. He was called before a tribunal and noticed that he was dressed in fine garments. He was called by a different name (Kanet?)--and told that he must work rapidly to complete his task upon the Earth planet. All he could remember from this eight day journey was the fact that he must work quickly. His wife said that before the period of amnesia Lyman was just an ordinary radioman, but after his recovery he spent long hours studying electronics and would work for hours on end until he became a top-grade operator. Besides working at the Santa Fe radio shop, he had his amateur equipment in his ham shack back of his home on Maple Street, and at the other end of this shack his workshop, where he repaired most of the radios, TV sets, recorders, etc., of the neighborhood, including the car radios of the local Police Department. (I remember that once the police interrupted one of our communications with the UFOs by driving into the yard one night and asking Lyman to fix their radio. He obliged, but kept trying to hear the code coming in, listen to the idle talk of the officers and fix the radio, all at the same time.) Evidently, Lyman H. Streeter was a `Wanderer'. His name had been Kanet, and he was born on Earth to assist the programme of the Space Confederation. His so-called amnesia experience must have been his awakening period. [See page 206 in the book, Other Tongues-Other Flesh (Neville Spearman) --Editor] On 21 October 1952, something occurred that was to change the life of Mr. R. At 8:10 p.m. a small private plane crashed and burned at the airport at Winslow. This plane was on a mercy flight to a Phoenix hospital with a fourteen-months-old polio victim. All four passengers were instantly killed. One of the workers at the Winslow Timber Company (where Mrs. Streeter also was employed) was working late, and saw the plane take off and minutes later burst into flames. This man told the Civil Aeronautics Administration investigators that immediately after the crash, and before the ambulance and fire truck had arrived, an orange streak sped across the sky and apparently landed by the stricken plane! [UFOs appearing at the moment of birth or death are mentioned in the book : Road In The Sky, by George Hunt Williamson (Neville Spearman) -Editor.] Several days later, a man appeared at the Streeter home and introduced himself as 'Mr. Clark.' He asked Mrs. Streeter for Lyman and was told that he was outside in the radio shack. The man went out and introduced himself to Lyman, saying that although he was not on an official visit, he was with the CAA (Civil Aeronautics Administration) and had just completed his investigations of the crash of 21 October. He showed Lyman his credentials. Then, on a friendlier note, he said: 'I'm a ham operator myself.' Then he gave his call letters. (Streeter later checked up and found that there was a Clark with the call letters the man had given, but his address was not the same as that which had been given him.) The visitor then sat down, and said bluntly: 'Streeter, what do you think of the flying, saucers?' Lyman sensed something strange underneath all the apparent friendliness, but he answered honestly: `I have my own personal opinion, if that's what you mean. I think they come from Outer Space.' And then, very quickly, the man looked Lyman in the eyes and said: 'You've had radio contact with these things, haven't you?' Streeter realized that this man, Clark, or whoever he was, knew whether he had had radio communication or not, so he said simply: `I have conducted certain radio experiments under established scientific procedures. Yes, I have had contact with the flying saucers!' Whereupon Clark asked, `Would you mind showing me what you received from them? It's no secret is it?' Streeter reached for his notes in a drawer, as he answered. `No, it's no secret. I'll be glad to read you what I have, but I must tell you that because the messages were sent so fast, I missed many of the words, so the messages are incomplete.' Lyman started to read one message after another. Soon he noticed that whenever he came to a blank space, Clark would fill it in! Finally, Streeter said: `Look here, you must know more about the messages I received than I do!' `That's right,' Clark answered. `We monitored everything you transmitted and received.' Lyman was startled, to say the least! He said: `What do you mean by we, the Government?' Clark hesitated, put his cigarette out, looked intently at Lyman for another moment, and then said: `Of course, who else?' Streeter could hardly believe his ears! Confirmation of his experiments at last! But any ideas along this line were soon to be changed rather drastically. Lyman quickly answered: `You mean to tell me, Mr. Clark, you admit that flying saucers really exist, are coming from Outer Space, and that I have personally had radio communication with these objects?' Clarke didn't hesitate in his answers: `Of course I admit it, but you won't be able to prove it to anyone. You see, no one knows I've been here but you and your wife, and besides, I would never admit we talked about such things. I have been in Winslow strictly for the CAA investigation of the recent plane crash. Remember?' Weakly, Lyman said : `Just what does your visit to me mean?' `This is the story,' said Clark. `About the same time you were receiving your coded messages from the extra-terrestrials, fifteen other ham operators throughout the United States received the same kind of information. We have contacted them all and every one of them is willing to co-operate with his Government. Are you?' Lyman, still unable to believe what was happening answered: `What do you mean by co-operation, Mr. Clark?' Then, the CAA man pulled his ace-in-the-hole. `Look, Streeter, we have you dead to rights. You never used your call letters, you never logged your information, and even if you had done all of that, we still can take away your license because you were in communication with unlicensed operators! The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) frowns on such activity, you know! Now, you don't want to lose your radio privileges--after all, you are commercially licensed besides holding your amateur ticket, you're making, a good living from radio. If your license is taken away, what would you do?' This was the day Mr. R had been dreading. Many times he had told us that there was the possibility of getting in trouble with the FCC because of the unusual nature of the radio experiments. Clark then started waving the stars and stripes by saying: `Lyman, your Government is doing all it can to enlighten the people in connection with the coming of the flying saucers. But the time is not ripe yet. A vast educational programme has been planned, and gradually people will come to realize that all space is inhabited, but now the effect would be disastrous if people were to know the truth. Join the other fifteen operators and cooperate with us. We understand your friend Williamson is ready to have a book published called The Saucers Speak! and that it deals with the radio contacts. You know about this don't you?' `Yes,' said Lyman, `but my name and my city are not mentioned. No one will be able to locate me from the account in the book. My friends have promised to leave me out of it.' 'That's all right,' said Clark, `but the Government doesn't want the radio contact story to be released at this time. You'd better get in contact with Williamson and tell him that the book just can't come out at all, and be firm about it!' Lyman answered: `What can I tell him? I've already given him permission to do the story as long as my identity is withheld. He will think it's strange for me to want to stop the book now that it's ready to be distributed!' `That is your problem, Streeter,' said Clark. `But the story just can't come out now. Clark went patriotic again, and added: `Your Government will release such information in due time, but more evidence must be accumulated first. Tell your friend that your job is in danger, and your license. Tell him anything, but stop that book! We can't contact him, for we have his source of information--namely you, as radio operator. Besides, if we talk to him it will only give him proof that the entire affair was authentic. After all, he may still have a few doubts in the back of his mind. Who knows?' Streeter was almost speechless, as he said: `What is expected of me?' `You must co-operate to the limit with us, but I must warn you that we will not be able to back you up or support your story in any way whatsoever if you ever tell your contact story or mention my being here today, or our conversation!' `In other words,' said Lyman, `it will be one-sided co-operation?' `In the interests of national security,' said Clark. 'Yes, it will be strictly one-sided!' Mr. R had no choice. Although his visitor didn't state it in so many words, it was plain to see that if he didn't co-operate, the FCC regulations would be brought into the picture and he would lose his radio privileges, and, of course, his job with the Santa Fe Railroad! His only answer could have been that which it was: `What is the first step?' `We want you to increase your power here for transmitting,' said Clark. `How soon can you do this and be ready for some experiments?' `I can't afford to change my equipment now,' said Lyman, `it would be too expensive!' `We will send you the necessary parts, Streeter,' Clark said as he rose to go. 'But not a word to anyone, and you'd better not give any more information to Williamson.' Clark had been sent, not as an official from the FCC, for the Government felt that would be too severe a shock for Mr. R and that he might not give out any information at all. So, they had sent a CAA investigator who was also a ham, knowing full well that there is a comradeship between all radio amateurs, and this was to serve as the tie that binds and so establish communication between Clark and Streeter. Mr. R received his needed equipment within a few weeks and started to experiment at once, but never again did he receive anything from the space intelligences after his decision to co-operate with the powers that be! Later, he was visited by two officials of the FCC itself who told him to increase his efforts at contact. This he did, thereby affecting many of the neighborhood electronic gadgets, so he stopped. He was attempting to beam all messages straight up in a powerful way that would not be needed in ordinary ham procedures in contacting other amateurs throughout the world. Why he was told to increase his power, I do not know, because while science says that high frequency and high wattage is necessary for any kind of interstellar communication, we know now that power is not important, but that the type wave used is important. Streeter called me in Prescott and asked me to stop the book. Since he had already agreed to my writing the book, I thought he was only worried over the risk of his possible identification, and since I felt quite sure that Lyman was completely safe in my presentation, the book could still come out without any harm to him. Later I was to learn that he was concerned over something else. I had realized for many weeks that Lyman wasn't acting normally. He avoided us, and while he didn't really seem unfriendly, at the same time he was quite cool, as though he knew something that he couldn't tell us. Later we learned that this was true, due to the fact that he had been visited by Clark... who gave his full name as William (Bill) Clark. We were quite busy with other UFO happenings, however, about this time. Mr. and Mrs. Bailey and my wife and I were on the desert near Desert Centre, California, on zo November 1952, when George Adamski made his memorable contact with a Venusian. Many people have thought that because of our radio contacts we must have arranged that meeting on the desert, but that is not so, for due to Streeter's new commitments, we were not in radio contact at that time. No arrangements were made beforehand by anyone; we simply went out on the desert and what transpired was completely unexpected by all present. Many other things of interest happened during December 1952, January and February 1953 . UFO sightings increased and nature went on a rampage. On 21 December 1952, Lyman Streeter and five other residents of Arizona, observed a large, cigar-shaped object over Winslow. They watched it from 5:00 p.m. until dark. Two smaller UFOs were seen to enter the larger craft and a few minutes later one left the mother-ship. All of this was observed through binoculars. On 3 February 1953, my wife and I were coming home from downtown Prescott, Arizona, when we observed two objects, brighter than the planet Venus, which was in a different position in the sky, come within a few feet of the ground. These craft were close enough that the general bell-like outline and the light on top could be easily observed. There was absolutely no sound. I called the US Weather Bureau and was told that there were no planes or balloons in my area. Later the same night I observed another object with an amber light pass very low over my house. On 15 February 1953 we decided to visit Streeter in Winslow, although at that time we still did not know about his talk with Clark and we didn't understand his coolness towards us. There were several things we felt needed clearing up in regard to the book, which would shortly be released. We hoped the UFOs would have some ideas or advice for us. We told Lyman that we didn't know whether all the facts should be given to the public or not. He had little to say, for he had already told us that he didn't want the report to come out because of the danger to him and his position. He had the radio receiver turned on for he always kept it that way when he was in the ham shack. He transmitted nothing in connection with our request. In fact, he transmitted nothing at all! Suddenly a radio code signal just seemed to slide in on 405 kc. At first, Streeter couldn't make any sense out of the dot and dash system used. Finally, one word stood out: Centuras. This was followed by a very understandable message: 'OK. This time it's for you to decide. We cannot.' The message ended at 12:05 a.m. 16 February 1953. The UFO intelligences would not decide for us. We had to do that! So, in this book I haven't given the account exactly as it happened. We thought perhaps it would have been better to omit the telepathic section of our experiences, for after all it is not untruthful to tell only part of a story! After this communication we felt it best to tell the telepathic experiences as well as the subsequent radio contacts. Later, Streeter called me again and told me to stop the presses and prevent the publisher from coming out with the book. I thought this a strange request, for already I had assured him that his identity was hidden. But he said: `I told you I wanted to be protected, and you didn't live up to your promise because now I hear the book is to be released!' I told him that I had never agreed to stopping the book, but merely to protect him, and added: `But, Lyman, it will be impossible for anyone to know who you are or where you live. You are completely safe.' When he still insisted that I stop the book, by force if need be, I became very suspicious, and started an investigation which led to my discovery of the Clark episode. Previously, he had agreed to my writing the book provided that he be left out of it, but suddenly when the book was practically in the hands of the public, he did a quick turn-about. Something was wrong somewhere! I wanted to know what, and I found out. First, one visitor in the form of Clark and then two more men from the FCC. There is little doubt in my mind that Lyman H. Streeter had been visited by the notorious `three men in black!' A. David Middelton, who has a wide and varied background in electronics and the communication field decided to investigate Mr. R. Somehow he learned his identity, and personally interviewed Streeter. Middelton is a Senior Member of the Institute of Radio Engineers and was formerly a director of the American Radio Relay League. He holds an Extra Class Amateur License and maintains W 5 CA. Middelton was a project engineer at Fort Monmouth during World War II and also a civilian radar field engineer attached to the U S Navy. Moving to ARRL headquarters, he was Assistant Editor of QST, and later corresponding Editor of CQ magazine. Currently he is working for the United States Government in electronics. In January 1955, Middelton (W5CA) discussed the radio contacts with Lyman Streeter in person in Winslow. Later, I provided additional details. `After full consideration of all data,' said Middelton, `it is my opinion that these contacts were made by Mr. R as described.' About the same time, early in 1955, Middelton received reports of radio contact established between UFOs and a VE3 radio operator in Canada. He stated at the time that he 'believed the contacts were authentic although technical details were lacking.' The question Middelton asked, and rightly so, was: `Why have bonafide amateur UFO contact data been conspicuous by their absence in ham discussions on and off the air? Could it be that the amateurs involved have been afraid to report such contacts (Q S O s)? Afraid of what, or whom? Or, maybe there just have not been UFO amateur contacts other than the W7 and VE3 experiences!' Because of Clark's statement about the fifteen other amateur radio operators, we know there were more than W7 and VE3. That leaves us with: `Afraid of what, or whom?' After examining the facts in regard to Lyman Streeter's contacts, Middelton wrote the following letter: Federal Communications Commission. Amateur Division, Washington, DC. 9 April 1955. Dear O M s, This is a formal and serious inquiry. In view of information reaching me from seriously interested sources, the situation might arise wherein an amateur operator, duly licensed and operating within the amateur bands of this country, might be called by a station purporting to be from Outer Space or from Unidentified Flying Objects. Such stations also operating in our bands. The calls signs used by these U F Os are not any more unusual than many of the strange and weird ones being assigned by some foreign countries, I understand. In view of this fact, it would be difficult to ascertain if the station was, in fact, just another DX country, or one not on this planet, as far as the call sign is concerned. Will you please inform me as to the feelings and desires of the Amateur Division of the F C C on this matter, if any. Also, will you please inform me of regulations covering this matter? I realize that this is a strange inquiry but it is definitely in order, and made in a sincere effort to ascertain the FCC views on this matter. Also, what about amateurs transmitting within our authorized bands but receiving on frequencies outside the bands? This, too, is of concern. This involves Q S Os wherein the amateur did not make the call up. I would appreciate having your reply to this matter, with any degree of secrecy you wish to place on it. Respectfully yours, (Signed) A. DAVID MIDDELTON, W5C A Middelton wanted to ascertain FCC views on the matter, and that is exactly what the FCC didn't want him to do. His high reputation in this field, and the fact that his technical articles have been widely acclaimed in radio circles and reprinted throughout the world, didn't do very much to convince the FCC they could answer him `with any degree of secrecy' at all! He received a letter from them as follows: Federal Communications Commission Washington 25, DC. 25 April 1955. A. David Middelton, Tijeras, New Mexico. Dear Sir, This is in reference to your letter of 9 April 1955, requesting comments concerning regulations which would apply to possible communications with unidentified objects. In regard to amateur radio stations, Section 12.101, of Part 12 of the Commission's Rules Governing Amateur Radio Service specifies the points of communications permitted for amateur stations licensed by the Commission. Within the limitations of Section 12.101, amateurs may communicate with stations which transmit on frequencies outside the amateur frequency bands. Very truly yours, (Signed) MARY JANE MORRIS. Secretary, Between the time Middelton wrote to the FCC on 9 April, and the time he received an answer from Washington on 25 April. Lyman H. Streeter (Mr. R) had passed away on 23 April. Needless to say, the extreme mental anxiety and pressure placed upon Lyman Streeter didn't exactly place him in a state of exuberant health. He was a very young man to die, but I feel certain that 'Kanet,' the radioman, had done his job and had completed the mission he came here to do. Who is to say? Surely not the FCC! more, next headline, 12 Cosmic Rays and a Baby Sun, The inevitable question seems to be: `When and where will the UFOs land on Earth?' To answer this, it is best to give the statements made by space intelligences themselves. When they were asked what they would do to prevent an atomic war on Earth, they exclaimed: `We will do absolutely nothing to prevent or stop such a war!' They have stated that they do not know whether there will be such a civilization-destroying war or not. However, they point to the fact that all ancient prophecy, whether found in the Holy Bible, in other sacred books, or in manuscripts, definitely indicates that there will be a conflict of such magnitude that our present civilization will collapse completely. They have stated in numerous authentic contacts that if we decide on peace and follow a true One World Policy, they will eventually land, share some of their great developments with us, and assist us in taking our rightful place in the Interplanetary Brotherhood. They have further stated that if we do not decide on peace, and an atomic war emerges, they will not interfere but will let such a war progress to the stage where it can no longer be effectively waged due to the fact that both sides have been defeated by the total ruin of technical organization. Some might ask: `But if the space people are here to help us, why will they allow such a frightful war to continue, or even start in the first place?' We must remember that according to Universal Law, our space visitors cannot interfere with our progress on Earth. Since the Earth is only a classroom in the Father's many mansions certain lessons must be learned before Earthman earns graduation to higher spheres. An eighth grader doesn't enter the first grade to make fun of the students because they do things more simply than himself. Likewise, spacemen aren't going to step in and dictate to us; they are going to let us learn our lessons in our own way, even though they will undoubtedly be painful lessons, for the history of the Earth has proven this to be always true on this sorrowful planet! Space mentors declare, however, that the world is not going to end, even though there will be terrain changes, and violent storms, etc., still man is only to inherit the beautiful and good on Earth. After millennia this planet has managed to produce a harvest of souls who can live in fellowship, love and peace with their fellow men. It is this harvest or remnant that shall inherit the New Earth of the Golden Dawn. I do not support the prophet of doom predictions that claim our world will be utterly destroyed. But that there will be great destruction locally in various parts of the Earth there is no question! Yet will it not be worth it, if we awaken to a New Earth, purified and cleansed of all lust, greed and war? Is this not the Great Dream of all ages? You ask: `But what about the millions who will perish? Is this not a terrible loss?' Let us remember that life is eternal... therefore no one will actually perish, they will only leave a planet that is no longer suitable for their development. Those who have not yet learned the lessons contained in the Sermon on the Mount will be reborn on other worlds where they will remain until they learn Universal Laws and how to apply them. The space intelligences do not look upon death the same way as we do. If we are born to die, then we must also die to live! Why are the UFOs here? It is a difficult question to answer, but is usually summed up in the following: ' 1. Atomic experiments on Earth and our advancement in eventual space travel and the exploration of space have alerted other inhabited planets. [America expects to land a man on the Moon during 1968--Editor.] (There is always an increase in UFO sightings and fireball phenomena after atomic experiments and the launching of sputniks.) 2. This is the psychological time for outer space intelligences to make their appearance on Earth due to the above (No. 1) reason. 3. The space visitors wish to assist the remnant on Earth after catastrophe and return the Earth to the Interplanetary. Brotherhood from which it fell countless generations ago. 4. They (UFOs) are fulfilling prophecy concerned with the approaching New Age, Great Cycle or Second Coming. 5. Space friends intend to evacuate large portions of Earth's population in the event the axis of Earth shifts. [See Inside The Space Ships by George Adamski.] Apparently the above reasons sum up the main purposes for the coming of the U F Os. However, for some time, I have been aware that there is a much bigger and even greater purpose be hind it all which the U F Os have not yet revealed in any contacts. Although they show great love towards us, why have they decided to put in a mass appearance at this time? What arc they educating us for? If we are progressing in our own classroom why should they disturb us at all: What great cosmic change or knowledge of it has prompted them to come now? At first, the man-in-the-street wants to know if there are, indeed, `little orange balls going that-away!' Once he is convinced that something is `going that-away,' then he wants to have the greater answer: Why are they? In some contacts, a great dust cloud has been mentioned, and the fact that our Earth is now in the outer fringes of this area. Undoubtedly, by dust cloud they are referring to a great cosmic cloud or area of intense cosmic ray activity that not only our Earth is entering, but our entire Solar System. Evidently, for centuries, scientists of other worlds have realized that our Solar System was heading directly for the centre of this cosmically disturbed area, and they knew what would happen when the Earth and its neighbors plunged deeper and deeper into this dark cloud of space! Yes, we are now on the outer fringes of a great field cloud of energy, and are experiencing the first effects in the form of strange weather, melting polar ice caps, earthquakes, increased cosmic ray bombardment and the effect on radio broadcasting. The latter was brought to the public's attention some months ago. The governments of the world have been aware of this change for some time and are deeply concerned. Special projects have been set up to study radiation and its effect on organic life. `Project Rome' was set up to study the magnetic effects at the North and South Poles. Since a planet is a space ship itself, what better way to investigate the Universal Energy that powers such a craft, than to study the force at its source, the polar events of the Earth itself. Project NQ-707 was organized to attempt communication with the UFOs (at Edwards Air Force Base, California). During 1955-56 I was in correspondence with a well-known foreign scientist who said that after intensive research by government scientists they came to a terrifying conclusion: that our planet is moving very rapidly on a collision course with a gigantic embryonic sun! Research in this country by men such as Dr. Kurt Sitte, Syracuse University, and Dr. Jason, J. Nassau, Director of Warner-Swasey Observatory, Cleveland, Ohio, and others, shows us that indeed, the electron count has speeded up and the cosmic ray bombardment increased fantastically. The International Science Symposium held recently in Rome reached incredible conclusions. What does this collision course really mean to the people of the world? First of all, relax, for it very definitely does not mean the end of the world. Eventually, perhaps centuries from now, man will have to leave the Earth, his old home for the last few million years, and migrate through interstellar space to a new home. But for our generation and time we are told we need not be concerned with the world ending. A new Golden Age is about ready to be born on the Earth and the planet beneath our feet will have to be here if we are to reap the glorious benefits of such a New Age. However, as we plunge deeper into the magnetic field of the new baby sun, the effects will become more noticeable, and this will increase as times goes on. The most closely guarded secret of all time is not that visitors from Outer Space are here on Earth, but why they are here. They have come to prepare us for a new technology and age on our world so that we might be ready for the eventual journey through space that defies description. We are gathering data all the time on this and it will be presented as we receive and study it. Unfortunately, our designated superiors and authorities are not preparing us for anything. It is pretty obvious that politicians aren't going to help us, neither are militarists, scientists nor religionists. Noted astronomers are certain there is life on Mars. Great areas change from brown to green with the seasons and other blue-green areas change in tint. This is good evidence of vegetation or plant life. But what about more intelligent beings, Astronomers know beyond the shadow of a doubt that an intelligent race of beings exists on Mars because photographs taken during research in 1954 prove the existence of the canals and, more important still, prove that they are artificial, constructed by men like ourselves. Scientists have had ample time since 1947, when the UFOs were first given widespread publicity, to do an about-face on their lifeless universe theory. They could have saved face by suddenly telling the public that through their great discoveries they had found intelligent life existing on neighboring worlds! No one, in the excitement, would remember that until the announcement was made science had refused to accept such a belief. However, propaganda in the hands of an expert works wonders with the masses. For example, remember how millions of Americans suddenly had their minds changed for them during World War II...`Bloody Joe' (Stalin) became 'Uncle Joe', and we had to learn to love Russia, a country we formerly were told to hate. After World War II, the public had its mind changed, and the allies we needed during the war had to become the hated ones again. Once man had accepted life outside his own puny Earth, he would have been ready for the greater revelation. Not only is there life out in space, but it is now coming to Earth in the UFOs. But there have been no statements from the `priestly' scientists! Will they reveal their discoveries about Mars, the Moon and the other Planets? They will not! Any astronomer who has dared to make a public statement has been literally shut up by having the security curtain dropped over him. The UFOs are here to help awaken us. 'They are the fulfillment of all ancient prophecy in that they remind us that `our salvation draweth nigh.' The religious leaders of the world and their churches have done practically nothing about informing their flocks of the importance of the coming of the discs. That the UFOs tie in with prophetic statements of the Bible there is no question! What then is the matter with the clergy of the world? They are men of God who are supposed to bring Truth to the hungry sheep of the Lord. But are they really men of God? By their fruits ye shall know them the Bible tells us. So, let us examine the fruit of the clergy for a moment. If they and by 'they' we mean any religious leaders of any denomination--really believe in Jesus the Christ and what He taught as Divine teaching, then why do they not interpret His words correctly? During World War II ministers on both sides exhorted: `God is on our side, so you young men go out and fight for your country, your freedom and your Creator!' This is simply the pagan idea that God at various times takes sides and allows one group of men to kill and maim another group of men. It is the kind of theology that holds up a bloody god of war and death as the Supreme Intelligence of the Universe, an all-loving God! How contradictory can they become? God takes no sides! Christ does not, and could not condone any war! Here is a challenge: Let the self-appointed priests of this world tell all men everywhere that because Christ said `turn your check,' `meet hate with love,' `love your enemies,' 'he that takes up the sword will surely die by the sword,' `do good to them that hate you,' they (they men of Earth) should never take up arms again to destroy their fellowmen. If the World's great Christian religious leaders would tell mankind that it is utterly and completely against the teachings of Jesus the Christ to fight and kill, do you think a successful war could be waged? What if such an order came from the Vatican? What if a Catholic would suffer ex-communication for becoming a soldier or even for engaging in defense activities? A great number of potential fighting men in the world's population would be lost to the cause of the Hidden Empire wars. But apparently people believe what they are told, and in many cases they don't want to think; it is much easier to let someone else do that. How many times have we seen paintings of Jesus with outstretched hands bestowing blessings on servicemen girded to the loins with all kinds of devilish devices for taking the life of a brother, another spark of Divine Life? "The fault may lie at the door of the Emperor Constantine and his conclave of bishops and priests. This ruler in AD 325 assembled at Nicaca in Bithynia, a great council of over three hundred prelates, representing the different Christian churches throughout the Roman Empire and its satellites. They put into binding circulation certain dogmas, creeds and doctrines for the followers of the humble Christ. Therefore, a military emperor put his imperial signature to documents that were to affect most powerfully the destinies of the Christian nations, indeed, the whole world. A military man cannot suddenly be called to the role of Dove of God or Dove of Peace. Today, the so-called rulers of Earth are nothing but the puppets of the International Cabal. Go to the polls and vote and you don't vote for this man or that, for no matter who is elected, only one power is going to be in control anyway--the same power that has been in control since man came to Earth and knew the difference between good and evil! It is the same power that made Constantine hide his bloody battle armor and act out the role of Christ's representative on Earth. The Bible and other sacred books have been changed until they are no longer recognizable. Man has been enslaved by the powers of darkness on this strange little planet. But the time is fast approaching--in fact, is it not here? -- when men will no longer look to priests and kings, to scientists lost in their own imaginings, to authority wherever it exists! Man has access to the throne of God himself. He needs no one to save him from anything. Do not listen to the mouthpieces of the Hidden Empire, the politicians who promise you this or that for your physical existence, the priests who offer you life everlasting and eternal glory if you follow them, the generals who exist only because of war and suddenly are presented holy before you as god-fearing, righteous men, scientists who promise to give you immortality from a test-tube when you already are an immortal being! Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. (Mark 7: VII). Those who would place themselves over you as your guardians are teaching you the commandments of men and are passing them off as the doctrines of God! Wake up! In the name of an all-loving and compassionate Creator, wake up! The quicker we realize that this is revolution, the quicker the job will be done and the Kingdom of Heaven established upon the Earth. Yes, this is revolution, a revolt against tyranny, greed, lust, war, hatred and opposition to the basic rights of all men. Let us not be found wanting. Stand with your Creator and not with the forces of darkness. If God is with us, who can be against us? Recently, I heard a well-known radio minister tell his listeners that man was basically a terrestrial being and had no business snooping around in Outer Space. He said that other suns and worlds were God's secrets and man should not attempt to meddle in the Creator's private business. He believes that God will stop man from exploring space by direct intervention. In other words, God hasn't stopped man from committing the most atrocious crimes against Universal Law, but now He is going to step in and prevent us from taking a closer look at His celestial wonders. What rubbish! Man is not essentially a terrestrial being. He is a spiritual being that takes physical form so that spirit may come to know itself. How gullible do such ministers think men are? Our ancestors believed that the stars were lights that God set into motion on tracks, and every night sent them around the heavens to amuse His chosen Earth-children. You laugh? And well you might ! But the situation is no better today. We are told that we must believe that all celestial bodies outside of little Earth are strictly taboo. `Hands off!', says God. This same type of thinking has existed throughout all ages, and it enslaves mankind. But now the time is at hand when truly our `salvation draweth nigh.' Man will shortly stand as a true son of God himself, living in Truth. The vibrations of the New Age will not permit falsity of any kind to exist on Earth. The old falls away, all is made new. Look at present world conditions, look at the wars and rumors of wars. Yes, there will be chaos on Earth, but fear not, for out of the tribulation ahead shall come the most beautiful age man has ever known on Earth, the pitiful little 'Red Star.' Do not be deceived by those appointed over you who are in league with Anti-Christ. Believe no one just because he says it is true; do not even believe this book, but listen only to the dictates of your own heart and soul. He that shall endure unto the end (of the age), the same shall be saved. James Russell Lowell said: `Once to every man and nation, comes the moment to decide...' Perhaps, also only once to every planet comes the moment to decide. This is, indeed, the moment to do just that! Do not be found asleep. Watch, for no man knoweth the hour!
